The American dream is often thought about as an aspirational goal encompassing good work with a fair salary enabling a decent life and the possibility of sending children to good schools, acquiring a house, and so on. However, as we will see in specific cultural products about undocumented immigrants from the beginning of the last century to today, there is another side to this story. This article will first consider the point of departure of the American dream not as a path toward a better life but as a running away for survival. Second, the article will reflect on the face of longing central to the American dream immigration story, in which what is craved is not the aforementioned material goods, but instead the embrace of a husband, a father, or a mother gone long ago, as well as regaining a sense of identity, family, and belonging.","PeriodicalId":41712,"journal":{"name":"Pacific Coast Philology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49026708","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Troubling the conventional interpretation of Mona as a novel of intergenerational conflict that concludes with a happy ending, this article argues that the novel can be more meaningfully understood as a satirical commentary on traditional forms of the immigrant family romance. The argument draws on Sianne Ngai’s work on tone to shed light on the perfunctory-ness in the narrator’s voice in the “epilogue,” and to re-interpret that section as a metafictional element which Jen attached to Mona to appease the editorial imperatives of the neoliberal market, while indicating her own authorial position’s embeddedness in that same market’s appetite for good feelings from Asian American literature. The article further employs Jonathan Flatley’s theory of counter-mood to re-position “Chapter 15: Discoveries” as the more sincere ending within Mona. In that chapter, Jen subverts the idealization of the model minority family by presenting an anti-resolution that resists the positive affect of narrative closure as part of her critique of normative familial aesthetics which political conservatism began to agitate for in the aftermath of the civil rights movement.","PeriodicalId":41712,"journal":{"name":"Pacific Coast Philology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41625038","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

After offering a critical analysis of the normative images of the family tree and the rhetorical sleights of hand they perform, it suggests that we might locate alternative models of the family tree by closely examining literary representations of actual trees. It then focuses on two Australian novels that offer unconventional depictions of trees while valorizing queer kinship relations outside the constraints of the nuclear family: David Malouf’s Remembering Babylon (1993) and Patrick White’s Riders in the Chariot (1961). Through a close examination of how Malouf and White each depict the tree’s temporality, its dynamic motion, and its active engagement with surrounding organisms, the article points to aspects of the natural world that might help inform and enrich our conceptions of the family tree.","PeriodicalId":41712,"journal":{"name":"Pacific Coast Philology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42820485","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Through this colorful recidivist tale of a dysfunctional local man named Bobby, Cataluna weaves together a tragicomic story that sharply critiques the breakdown of contemporary social and family ties in Hawai’i. Bobby’s meandering, picaresque journey through Maui highlights the diverse forms of imprisonment and memory loss that have debilitated contemporary Hawaiian society. As Bobby seeks to connect on the outside to his friends, family, and his past, he is confronted by postcolonial legacies that have degraded the possibilities for authentic subjectivity, memory, intimacy, and familial bonding.","PeriodicalId":41712,"journal":{"name":"Pacific Coast Philology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49471238","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Remembering his own attempt to obtain his U.S. citizenship, Delgado explores the complexities of his mother’s exile and the nomadic life of his legally mixed-status family; he also writes about the importance of his Catholic traditions and his mother’s storytelling as ways to resist assimilation and retain a connection to Mexico. The family’s struggles and Delgado’s growth as a poet are read through a larger political and cultural framework that calls attention to Latin American movements such as Nueva Canción and Liberation Theology. The title of the article alludes to José Martí’s seminal essay. Delgado wrestles to understand what it means to be a resident in a pluralistic and multicultural continent stitched up by its border crossings.","PeriodicalId":41712,"journal":{"name":"Pacific Coast Philology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45414252","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Instead of securely positioning the child on the path toward reproductive futurism and the creation of a new family home, these tales present radical visions of queer futurity and kinship and upend normative child-adult relations. Drawing in particular on Sara Ahmed’s work on happiness and Judith (Jack) Halberstam’s analysis of queer time, this article analyzes how Donoghue’s versions of “Cinderella” and “Hansel and Gretel” unhome their protagonists and cast them outside of heteronormative temporality.","PeriodicalId":41712,"journal":{"name":"Pacific Coast Philology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48155353","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
