Maxine, Aoki, Beto and Me is a hilarious collection of stories about modern cosmopolitans trying to make the best out of a planet besieged by natural disasters, economic downturns, and political strife. Published in international literary journals in the last two years, these award-winning stories form Wena Poon’s third book of globetrotting short fiction. They are published together for the first time with her black and white photography.
