Full description for Who am I?
"Who Am I? "is the bittersweet memoir of a Chinese American who came to this country as a twenty-year-old graduate student and stayed to become one of America's most innovative intellectuals, whose work has explored the aesthetic and moral dimensions of human relations with landscape, nature, and environment. This unusually introspective autobiography mixes Yi-Fu Tuan's reflections on a life filled with recognition, accolades, and affection with what he deems moral failings, his lack of courage--including the courage to be open about his homosexuality. "A stunningly good book--entrancing, exciting, beautifully written, full of apercus that stimulate, tantalize, and fulfill."--David Lowenthal, author of "The Past is a Foreign Country"
