Explore the power and diversity of the Chinese-American experience! Michael Luo, journalist & executive editor of The New Yorker, discusses his landmark study, “Strangers in the Land” with Matthew Purdy, editor at large of The New York Times. “You can’t paint a complete picture of America without [the story of Chinese Americans], and the New Yorker journalist Michael Luo tells it persuasively in ‘Strangers in the Land‘… [The book] succeeds through its little biographies of individuals – a range of quirky and fascinating figures, both Chinese and white, who drive the narrative. . . [and offer] a view on the full complexity of American immigration.” ―The New York Times Book Review

Doors open at 6 p.m. The discussion will be followed by an audience Q&A and book sales and signing with Watchung Booksellers.
