About the Event: In 2018 Michelle Zauner (also known by her indie rockstar alias Japanese Breakfast) penned the New Yorker article “Crying in H Mart” about losing her mother. Three years later this essay, which she describes as “the first chapter of the story that I want to tell about my mother,” has expanded into Zauner’s memoir—a story of food, family, and grief. Zauner comes to CHF to discuss growing up Korean American, becoming a musician, and remembering her mother. She is joined in conversation by New Yorker staff writer Jia Tolentino. All CHF's virtual events have closed captions. About the Book Pre-order your book and directly support independent bookselling in Chicago. CHF does not earn revenue from book sales.
