How will the Kangs transform these long dough strips into a prize-winning dish now? Learn how the creative Kang boys may have invented noodles, then try slurping some yourself with the long life noodle recipe included at the end of this book.

Fortress of Solitude by Jonathan Lethem
Dylan grows up in a black neighborhood in Brooklyn, the only white boy around. His hippie parents are oblivious, but his troubles in an all-black milieu are eased by his best friend, Mingus Rude, the son of a soul singer. As the boys grow up, Dylan moves away from his roots and goes off to college in Berkeley, while Mingus falls deep into crack and drug-dealing and ends up in jail. Throughout, the presence of a magic ring that allows its wearer to fly is a recurring motif in this close look at the insidious presence of racism in American life.
