Abstract

Teow Lim Goh's book, "Western Journeys," is a collection of essays that explores various topics such as the immigrant experience, the history of Chinese immigrants in the United States, writing and art, and responsibility and power. Goh uses personal experiences, history, description, and literary analysis to delve into specific western locations. The essays challenge readers to look beyond the myths and stereotypes associated with the American West and to consider the complexities of race, power, and immigration. Goh's writing is thought-provoking and encourages readers to explore their own perspectives and expand their understanding of the American West. [Extracted from the article]
