五月是亞太裔傳統月！想看看又感人又好笑的書嗎？AIT高雄分處副處長樂美瓏推薦著名華裔演員歐陽萬成的自傳 --《How to American: 一位美國移民教你如何讓父母失望的指導手冊》。你可能知道歐陽萬成曾飾演HBO美劇《矽谷》和賣座電影《瘋狂亞洲富豪》的角色，但你知道他是13歲從香港移民到美國，當時他還不太會講英文嗎？這個感人的回憶錄講述自己在美國成長點滴，最後成為美國公民，其中有一些文化分岐的故事。(💡小提醒: 這本書包含一些成人話題, 可能不適合小朋友或青少年閱讀)。#APAHM2020
Looking for a good read in honor of Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, one that is both touching and laugh-out-loud funny? AIT/Kaohsiung’s Suzanne Wong suggests Jimmy O. Yang’s autobiography “How to American: An Immigrant’s Guide to Disappointing Your Parents.” You may recognize Jimmy from HBO’s Silicon Valley and the box office hit “Crazy Rich Asians,” but did you know that he emigrated from Hong Kong to the U.S. at age 13 speaking very little English? This touching memoir details his coming of age in America and eventual naturalization, navigating cultural divides along the way. (Note: This book contains adult themes and may not be suitable for young readers.)
