About this Event
Join author Denise Chong, best known for her family memoir, The Concubine’s Children, for a conversation on the writer’s use of the tool of memory: powerful, but also fickle and unreliable.
Denise will discuss how we feel compelled to rummage in our pasts, hoping to bring to life, if only for a moment, what we remember. She’ll share how the writer relies on the tool of memory, and also has to grapple with how fickle and flawed it can be.
Moderated by Lucie McNeill, former CBC Radio current affairs host in Vancouver, and freelance journalist in China.
