ISBN 978-0-8160-6086-3) in 2007. The tome won the award for Best Reference of 2007 Award from Library Journal. While Asian-Americans have been writing and publishing since the 19th century, the appearance of writers like Amy Tan and Khaled Hosseini on recent bestseller lists has prompted an interest in North American writers of Asian descent. The Encyclopedia of Asian-American Literature, edited by Oh, features 337 entries by 95 contributors from several continents. It describes 200 Asian American authors and their literary achievements.
