Hey y'all.
After reading Don Lee's Wrack and Ruin, I have decided to make a quick inventory of Asian American literature that deals (at least a little) with agricultural labor--whether it is migrant farm labor, small farm work, or agribusiness. If you have suggestions, please let me know. I want to reference them in my paper on Ruth Ozeki's All Over Creation about environmental issues.
Off the top of my head, I can just think of Carlos Bulosan's America Is in the Heart, David Mas Masumoto's books, Allen Say's picture book Music for Alice, stories by Hisaye Yamamoto, and Milton Murayama's All I Asking for Is My Body. I'm sure there are others....
