About this Event
Everything I learned, I learned in a Chinese Restaurant is this year’s Great Michigan Read choice, and CLUSTER is thrilled to host author in conversation.
Chin will be joined in conversation by University of Michigan Professors Dr. Nadine Hubbs and William A. Calvo-Quirós exploring themes of immigration, identity, community and the experience of growing up queer in 1980’s American and outside its borders. Together, they will reflect on how a place of upbringing becomes the setting for an unlikely origin story: In Chin’s case a Chinese restaurant becomes the setting for how a closeted Chinese boy raised on republican politics transforms into a searingly honest Gay writer and activist for social and political activism in both the LGBTQ+ and AAPI communities.
The event is moderator by CLUSTER co-founder Chien-An Yuan.
Great Michigan Reads brings excellent and critically acclaimed books into the public zeitgeist.
