A Publishers Weekly Best Book of the Year
Winner of the James Michener/Copernicus Society Fellowship Prize
Lambda Literary Foundation Editor's Choice Award

" Chee] says volumes with just a few incendiary words." --New York Times

"Arresting . . . profound and poetic . . . Chee's voice is worth listening to." --San Francisco Chronicle

"Alexander Chee gets my vote for the best new novelist I've read in some time. Edinburgh is moody, dramatic--and pure." --Edmund White

Twelve-year-old Fee is a shy Korean American boy and a newly named section leader of the first sopranos in his local boys' choir. But when Fee learns how the director treats his section leaders, he is so ashamed he says nothing of the abuse, not even when Peter, his best friend, is in line to be next. When the director is arrested, Fee tries to forgive himself for his silence. But when Peter takes his own life, Fee blames only himself. In the years that follow he slowly builds a new life, teaching near his hometown. There he meets a young student who is the picture of Peter and is forced to confront the past he believed was gone. Told with "the force of a dream and the heft of a life,"* Edinburgh marked Chee "as a major talent whose career will bear watching" (Publishers Weekly).

"A coming-of-age tale in the grand Romantic tradition, where passions run high, Cupid stalks Psyche, and love shares the dance floor with death . . . A lovely, nuanced, never predictable portrait of a creative soul in the throes of becoming." --Washington Post

I wasn’t expecting much for about $50
Size: Medium, Color: Blue, Size: Medium, Color: Blue
I was in a hurry from for a casual dinner jacket for a Caribbean cruise with my 11 year old this week. I wasn’t gonna be picky. 1) it looks like 70’s leisure suit material 2) what looks like lint are little bits of white polyester thread. When picked off one of said pieces of lint, this picture with the long thread happened 3) it came folded in a manner you should not fold a jacket. 4) Its 19% linen 1% cotton but it looks 0% natural materials 5) A 40R fits me well and I’ll not be able to button this size M, it’s too small for me. It will work unbuttoned 6) I’d return if I had an option. It’s low stakes, I’ll wear it twice and never again. 7) The pictures in the ad are fair, just look at all of them, not just the first one. Overall I don’t think it should be marketed as linen.
