Hardback. Zustand: Good. One of the The New York Times's 100 Best Books of the 21st Century Winner of the Pulitzer Prize Winner of the National Book Critics Circle Award New York Times Bestseller "Quietly wrenching.To say that this book is about grief or coming-of-age doesn't quite do it justice.This is a memoir that gathers power through accretion--all those moments and gestures that constitute experience, the bits and pieces that coalesce into a life." -- The New York Times "[A] luminous and tender-hearted story. . . Stay True is a nuanced and beautiful evocation of young adulthood in all its sloppy, exuberant glory." -- The Wall Street Journal "An evolutionary step for Asian American literature." -- New York Magazine In the eyes of eighteen-year-old Hua Hsu, the problem with Ken--with his passion for Dave Matthews, Abercrombie & Fitch, and his fraternity--is that he is exactly like everyone else. Ken, whose Japanese American family has been in the United States for generations, is mainstream; for Hua, the son of Taiwanese immigrants, who makes 'zines and haunts Bay Area record shops, Ken represents all that he defines himself in opposition to. The only thing Hua and Ken have in common is that, however they engage with it, American culture doesn't seem to have a place for either of them. But despite his first impressions, Hua and Ken become friends, a friendship built on late-night conversations over cigarettes, long drives along the California coast, and the successes and humiliations of everyday college life. And then violently, senselessly, Ken is gone, killed in a carjacking, not even three years after the day they first meet. Determined to hold on to all that was left of one of his closest friends--his memories--Hua turned to writing. Stay True is the book he's been working on ever since. A coming-of-age story that details both the ordinary and extraordinary, Stay True is a bracing memoir about growing up, and about moving through the world in search of meaning and belonging.…

From New Yorker staff writer Hua Hsu comes a gripping memoir that explores friendship, grief, self-discovery, and the solace found in art. At 18, Hua sees Ken--who embodies mainstream culture through his love for Dave Matthews and fraternity life--as everything he opposes. Ken, a Japanese American from a long-established family, represents the conformity that Hua, a first-generation Taiwanese American with a passion for 'zines and record shops, resists. Despite their differences, they forge a deep friendship through late-night talks, coastal drives, and the ups and downs of college life. Tragically, Ken's life is cut short when he is killed in a carjacking, just three years after their initial meeting. In the wake of this loss, Hua channels his grief into writing, aiming to preserve Ken's memory. This memoir captures the complexities of growing up and the search for meaning and belonging in a world that often feels unwelcoming. Stay True is a poignant coming-of-age narrative that intertwines the ordinary with the extraordinary, reflecting on the profound impact of friendship and the enduring quest for identity.…
