We’re highlighting the recent launch of Go Home!, our anthology published in collaboration with the Feminist Press, featuring Asian diasporic writers who imagine “home” in the twenty-first century through an array of fiction, memoir, and poetry. On March 12th, we hosted a release party at our event space in Manhattan with contributing writers Alexander Chee, Karissa Chen, Chaya Babu, Wendy Xu, Gina Apostol, & the anthology’s editor, Rowan Hisayo Buchanan who read to a packed house. It was an incredible evening and we’re excited to share the audio with you. Because it was a two-hour event, we’re splitting it into two podcast episodes: this episode will feature the introduction and readings, including Alexander Chee on his first roommate and Gina Apostol on Kundimans.
