Description
Becoming Everyone Everywhere
成为所有地方的所有人
2026
Becoming Everyone, Everywhere is a collection of short stories, notes, and snapshots drawn from Yasmine Anlan Huang’s travels and processes of relocation since 2019. Extending an autobiographical narrative and a recurring protagonist from her previous publications and films, the book shifts toward autofiction, reframing lived experience through a character who allows the author to rehearse lives she cannot yet inhabit. Siming, a transliteration of “Yasmine” back into Chinese, appears across four stories as an idol, an idol aspirant, a fledgling part-time girlfriend, and a defeated novelist in an unexpected chance encounter. Edging between danger and security, Siming approaches self-actualization as identity is performed, translated, and continually revised in fantasies.
