“Deceit and Other Possibilities” Book Launch | SF

Submitted by the Event Organizer

Vanessa Hua presents her debut collection, Deceit and Other Possibilities, in conversation with ZYZZYVA editor Oscar Villalon. The characters in these stories vividly illustrate the conflict between self and society, tradition and change: a Hong Kong movie idol flees a sex scandal; an obedient daughter lies about attending Stanford; a Chinatown elder is summoned to his ancestral village, and a Korean-American pastor hides a secret agenda. Hua explores the clash of cultures and the complex, shifting allegiances they carry with them as they make their way forward in a new land.

Free but an RSVP is encouraged.
