《早餐午餐晚餐》：作者新書座談會
請來參加本地獲獎詩人和作家Nellie Wong的新書座談會，她將為讀者介紹她的第四本詩《早餐午餐晚餐》。她充滿活力的詩作見證了她令人難以置信的經歷—從她父母移民經天使島來美，到第二次世界大戰，民權運動，乃至各地為團結而奮鬥等等。
Nellie Wong的詩作石刻在舊金山的Market街和Embarcadero大道上。最近，她的母校東灣奧克蘭高中的一幢新樓也以她的名字命名。
此座談會附作者新書簽售。此活動將以英語進行。

Breakfast Lunch Dinner
Please join award-winning local poet and author Nellie Wong as she reads from Breakfast Lunch Dinner, her fourth book of poetry. Her vibrant poetry bears witness to the incredible times through which she lived—from the immigration of her parents via Angel Island, World War II, the Civil Rights Movement, and the struggle for solidarity everywhere. Nellie Wong’s poetry in stone engravings graces upper Market Street and the Embarcadero Roadway in San Francisco. Recently, a new building on the campus of Oakland High School, her alma mater, was named after her.
Books will be available for purchase and signing. This author event will be in English only.
