What's Your Heart Telling You
Manage episode 394284033 series 2540922
Welcome back! Today's guest, Jane Wong, is a poet, a professor, and a restaurant kid - her new book, “Meet Me Tonight in Atlantic City,” covers growing up in a Chinese-American restaurant and reckoning with her ancestral past and present. In her book, you can expect passages as specific as ‘How to fall asleep so your mom picks you up” or earlier in that same chapter, “How to lock your brother in the meat freezer.” Her poetry, which she’s published in two books, has led her to create exhibits, one based on a poem entitled “After Preparing the Altar, the Ghosts Feast Feverishly,” which combines her past growing up in a restaurant with her ancestor’s struggles of surviving “the great leap forward” one of the most deadly famines in history
