The book examines new representations of diasporic Chinese femininity emerging from Asia Pacific modernities since the late twentieth century.
With great sensitivity and originality, Olivia Khoo shows us how to read popular films, female movie stars, quotidian cultural artifacts, novels, and other 'Chinese exotic' phenomena in contemporary global circulation. To the representational politics of what she terms diaspora China, she has brought a notably fresh level of analytical finesse and imagination. -- Rey Chow, Andrew W.
