By analyzing how the narrative subjects represent and renegotiate their relations with their Asian homelands, The book points out that the historical traces of the World War Two, the Vietnam War, and the Korean War complicate Sansei, refugee, and adoptee's relations with their Asian homelands respectively and hence make Asia a site of contradiction in their Asian American identity.
