Revenge of the Mooncake Vixen

  • Revenge of the Mooncake Vixen

  • 'Oh Lord! Here come the Double Happiness Twins . . .'

    The Double Happiness Twins are Moonie and Mei Ling. The Double Happiness is the Chinese restaurant in California where they help out their meat-cleaver-wielding grandmother - when they're not causing uproar and mayhem. And Revenge of the Mooncake Vixen is the story of the sisters, their Grandma, a lot of animals and the topsy-turvy, surreal experience of being a pair of strangers in a very, very strange land indeed.

Marilyn Chin was born in Hong Kong and raised in Portland, Oregon. She has won numerous awards for her poetry, including four Pushcart Prizes. Her books of poetry include Dwarf Bamboo, Rhapsody in Plain Yellow and The Phoenix Gone, The Terrace Empty.
