Author Talk: In Celebration of Find Me as the Creature I Am

Join AAWW in-person and online for a celebration of Emily Jungmin Yoon’s Find Me as the Creature I Am! Emily will be joined by writers Monica Sok and Sally Wen Mao.

Find Me as the Creature I Am is a book full of tenderness and violence, longing and love. Ranging from inherited family tales to meditations on the body to animals’ display of love and grief alike, Emily Jungmin Yoon holds up a mirror to humanity to show that we are animal, too. In poems full of wonder and want, she showcases our tendencies to fight or fly, act with affection and cruelty, and ultimately, overflow with life itself.
