Event Details
Join the Through Their Eyes Book Club in reading Crying in H Mart by Michelle Zauner.
Michelle Zauner tells her story, through humor and heart, of growing up as one of the few Asian American kids in her school in Oregon; of struggling with her mother's particular, high expectations of her; of a painful adolescence; of treasured months spent in her grandmother's tiny apartment in Seoul, where she and her mother would bond, late at night, over heaping plates of food. As an adult, Michelle's Korean identity began to feel distant. Her mother's diagnosis of terminal cancer forced a reckoning with her identity and brought her to reclaim the gifts of taste, language, and history her mother had given her. (Amazon)
Through Their Eyes is a biography and memoir book club that meets once a month.
