Author Reading | The Impossible City of Hong Kong: A Memoir

Wednesday, April 20, 2022, 4:00 pm

Free

This book paints a portrait of the generation of young people in Hong Kong who came of age after the 1997 handover, weaving memoir, reportage, and cultural criticism to examine the city's political history, the lack of mental healthcare and affordable housing, and its underground music scene. Drawing richly from her own experience, as well as interviews with musicians, protesters, and writers who have made Hong Kong their home, journalist Karen Cheung gives us a view of this remarkable city at a critical moment in history.

Karen Cheung is a writer and journalist from Hong Kong. Her essays, cultural criticism, and reported features have appeared on This American Life and in The New York Times, Foreign Policy, and other publications. She was formerly a reporter at Hong Kong Free Press and was co–founding editor of Still / Loud, an indie magazine about culture and music in Hong Kong.
