Vintage Books is honored to interview Jason Tanamor for its weekly Vintage Books Live! interview in celebration of his new YA novel, LOVE, DANCE & EGG ROLLS, on Monday, 06/13/2022 at 7pm PT (10pm ET).
Jamie Santiago is just an ordinary high school teenager growing up in Portland, Oregon. Yet, in a moment, he is forced to make an important decision between honoring his heritage and salvaging what's left of his social life. With a racist bully at school and rising protests in Portland, Jamie sometimes wonders if it would be easier to forget his Filipino side entirely instead of trying to embrace it.

About THE BODY PAPERS:
A New York Times Editors' Choice selection, a Must-Read for the Massachusetts Book Awards, a Foreword INDIES Finalist, and winner of the Restless Books Prize for New Immigrant Writing, The Body Papers powerfully explores the fraught contours of her own life as a Filipino immigrant and survivor of cancer and childhood abuse. The generosity of spirit and literary acuity of this debut memoir are a testament to her determination and resilience. In excavating such abuse and trauma, and supplementing her story with government documents, medical records, and family photos, Talusan gives voice to unspeakable experience, and shines a light of hope into the darkness.
About Grace Talusan:
She was born in the Philippines and raised in New England. She graduated from Tufts University and the MFA Program in Writing at UC Irvine. She is the recipient of a U.S. Fulbright Fellowship to the Philippines and an Artist Fellowship Award from the Massachusetts Cultural Council.
