Tastes Like War: A Virtual Author Talk with Grace M. Cho: Winter 2023 (AO525)

Event Description

You’re invited to an insightful chat with award-winning author Grace M. Cho as she discusses her memoir, Tastes Like War--part food memoir, part sociological investigation about a daughter’s search through intimate and global history for the roots of her mother’s schizophrenia. In her mother’s final years, Grace learned to cook dishes from her mother’s childhood in order to invite the past into the present, and to hold space for her mother’s multiple voices at the table. And through careful listening over these shared meals, Grace discovered not only the things that broke the brilliant, complicated woman who raised her—but also the things that kept her alive. This event is part of the Library Speakers Consortium, a platform for virtual author engagements offered free to our patrons.
