— Review of Look Who's Morphing Tom Cho , 2009 selected work short story

In this review, Cyril Wong discusses the surrealism of Tom Cho's Look Who's Morphing, and what it might reveal about the author's subconscious. Wong suggests that 'Cho’s fantastical forays into the Twilight Zone of the diasporic-Chinese-queer-male mind tell us readers straightaway that his bizarre tales are, without a doubt, autobiographical, even confessional.'
