Authors in Conversation at Greenlight Bookstore (virtual): Taiwanese Diaspora Literature with Jessica J. Lee)

5 Under 35 honoree K-Ming Chang and acclaimed author Jessica J. Lee team up to discuss their books, Taiwanese heritage, and more at this special virtual event. Chang’s spellbinding, visceral debut Bestiary follows three generations of Taiwanese American women haunted by the myths of their homeland. With a poetic voice of crackling electricity, Chang crafts a novel of migration, queer lineages, and girlhood. Lee’s Two Trees Make a Forest is an exhilarating, anti-colonial reclamation of nature writing and memoir, rooted in the forests and flatlands of Taiwan. This genre-shattering book, encompassing history, travel, nature, and memoir, is an extraordinary narrative showing how geographical forces are interlaced with our family stories. Join Chang and Lee for a night in discussion and celebration of their incredible work!

Virtual/Online Bestiary Launch with Franny Choi at the Asian American Writers' Workshop

The Asian American Writers’ Workshop celebrates the publication of K-Ming Chang’s debut novel, Bestiary, with a reading and conversation with K-Ming and Franny Choi on September 29, 7:00 pm EST. More about the event is here. Exploring the ways writing about girlhood can reinvent our definitions of community and lineage, and the ways we can grapple with and imagine beyond threats of violence that often shape daughterhood, this conversation will delve into family and queer girlhood as a generative space of resistance and reinvention, monstruousness and memory. This event will be live-streamed on Zoom, and CART captions will be available. The first 100 RSVPs will receive access to the Zoom link via email. The event will also be live streamed on the Asian American Writers’ Workshop YouTube page for the greater public.

RSVP here!
