"Apologies Forthcoming"

Four decades ago China was embroiled in the Cultural Revolution, a period that turned the country on end and defined the generation of Chinese now coming to power. This collection of stories, departing from the usual "victim literature," provides an apolitical and humanistic view onto life during and after that time. Join us for an evening with Eberlein, described as "a writer of uncommon talent" by Laila Lalami and "a gifted storyteller, attuned to how people think and feel and deal with the things that really matter behind the show of appearances," by Sven Birkerts.
