Listen "Jenny Tinghui Zhang – "Four Treasures of the Sky""
Episode Synopsis
"Haunting." David, Torie and COB alum Erica Wright break down the sports weekend (because we're about more than books) and Erica's life as a writer with a toddler in tow. They debrief "celebrities that write fiction." Carrie Fisher and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar a yes; the Kardashian sisters a hard no. Jenny Tinghui Zhang, poet, essayist and now novelist, zooms in to share "Four Treasures of the Sky." A Chinese immigrant seeks identity in the 1880s American west, reinventing herself in the face of racism and violence.
