Summary "Anuradha Bhowmik's life as a Bangladeshi-born American girl growing up as a first-generation immigrant in the United States gives shape to this debut collection. Brown Girl Chromatography interrogates issues of race, class, gender, and sexuality in a post-911 America while navigating the poet's millennial childhood, adolescence, and adulthood." -- Publisher description
