We touched on this briefly in our discussions, but an aspect of American Born Chinese that I wanted to talk about was the use of space that Yang utilized throughout his story. Although the book is printed in full length pages, the content is presented in the form of a square story panel in the center of each page. Why did you think he decided to do this rather than utilize the full page? Is there a even a reason behind it, or did it just work best in the story that he was trying to tell? Did he do it because it was less to draw in that less background imagery was needed? Or do you think that there is no real reason behind it? I think it's purely a design decision that Yang thought looked good, so he went with it, but perhaps there's more.
