Tiles That Unite: Portraits of Mahjong Players Across the U.S.

Tiles That Unite is a celebration of mahjong and a powerful journey into the heart of America—told through the players who’ve made the game their lifeline, tradition, and community. This one-of-a-kind portrait book shares intimate, often unexpected stories from all 50 states, featuring a variety of styles, from American and Chinese to Riichi and Wright-Patterson. Meet the faces and voices behind the portraits—from a military vet in New York to a Jewish grandmother in New Jersey, a dermatologist in Nevada to a collector in Alaska. Mahjong is a game that quietly unites generations, sparks joy, and forges lifelong friendships. More than a book about a game, it’s a celebration of connection—how a centuries-old tradition has woven itself into the fabric of American life, culture, and resilience. Whether you play weekly or have never touched a mahjong tile, Tiles That Unite will leave you moved, inspired, and eager to join the table.
