As part of his lecture tour of Europe, American author Curtis Chin will be speaking at Luddites!
His book, Everything I Learned, I Learned in a Chinese Restaurant, is about growing up as an ABC (American-Born Chinese) presents its own series of challenges, but growing up as one in the eighties, in Detroit, while gay presents a whole new series of them. Still, this book is just as much a reflection on Chin’s life as it is a love letter to the Chinese restaurant his family owned for generations–a haven where everyone was welcome in an otherwise volatile city.
The book is as approachable as it is intimate, and we are very excited to have him here, so please join us in giving him a warm welcome to Antwerp.
