Meet The Author via Skype: Nicole Chung
Come meet the author and discuss her debut memoir, All You Can Ever Know. Nicole Chung challenges the traditional adoption narrative and sheds light on the complicated reality of being a transracial adoptee. How do you find community in a town where no one looks like you? What’s it like to embrace your birth culture years into adulthood? What do you tell your children when they ask about their heritage?
