New Release Club: Taipei Story by R.F. Kuang

​What if the diaspora fantasy of homecoming never comes true? What if learning a language can’t bring you any closer to the people you’re trying to reach? What if you search for your family’s history, but your family doesn’t want to share? What if you wait too long to ask the right questions? As Lily struggles for answers, her summer becomes a poignant search for understanding—of herself, her family, and the meaning of home.

​R.F. Kuang is back with (may we say) another modern day classic. This is a wryly humorous and profoundly moving coming-of-age novel that grapples with grief, language, and culture shock—all set against the backdrop of an unforgettable summer in Taipei.

​We have multiple days available for this New Release Club meeting in multiple locations; however, tickets are not transferable.
