In Dogeaters Jessica Hagedorn has transformed her own best-selling novel into an equally powerful piece that is a multi-layered, operatic tour de force. As Harold Bloom writes: 'Hagedorn expresses the conflicts experienced by Asian immigrants caught between two cultures...She takes aim at racism in the US and develops in her dramas the themes of displacement and the search for belonging.' ('Dogeater', by the way, is a derogatory American term for Philippino.)
