One Hell of a Trip!
This is one show that follows like one giant mind fuck. From the tripped out scenes to the intensity that the characters bring to the show I couldn't look away. The whole concept of the show is New Gods vs. Old Gods in America. It's a conversation that started long ago when I was in college that begs to answer one singular question, what do Americans worship. This show personifies the Gods that were brought over from the different cultures immigrants come from. Putting them up between the 'Gods' or the modern era, television, internet, and the mysterious Mr. World who I haven't quite put my finger on yet. However, with such an intense concept it takes a minute for the show to sink in and even when it does it takes a bit of concentration to follow the actually plot. My best advice is to lean back and enjoy the intense, trippy scenes that come with every scene. All you really need to know is the basic plotline anyways! The rest will fall into place eventually!

I read this book a little while ago so my review will be very short. It is also hard for me to review a short story collection. I did enjoy this book because it is historical fiction. The stories draw you in and you can feel what each character is going through. There are two stories that deals with Chinese immigrants and what they go through and how they are treated.
My favorite story is about an Irish immigrant who becomes a teacher. I love that her family was very supportive and how the young man who is interested in her helps her out also even though she doesn't give him the light of day.
I would recommend this book for you read.
