Asian American Literature Resources
Asian American Literature is a growing new subdivision of multicultural
literature. Asian Americans are a heterogeneous group of people in the
United States
with origins to one or more countries in
Asia
. Chinese, Filipinos, Japanese, Indians, Koreans and Vietnamese are the main
representatives of this group. With the advent of Chinese immigration in the
nineteenth century to the present, Asian Americans have had a tremendous effect
on American society and have made significant contributions in music and sports,
science and literature. It is my hope that this bibliography will serve as a
comprehensive and useful guide that will help students and researchers gain a
better understanding of the life and culture of this ethnic minority.
