SUMMARY:Theater: The Latehomecomer: Performance & Book Giveaway
DESCRIPTION:Literature to Life is a performance-based literacy program that presents professionally staged verbatim adaptations of American literary classics. Now\, in partnership with NYPL and the World Literature and Arts Festival\, Literature to Life brings The Latehomecomer by Kao Kalia Yang to the stage at Bronx Library Center.\n\nThis  memoir is Kao Kalia Yang’s tribute to her remarkable grandmother whose spirit held them all together. Winner of a PEN USA Literary Award for Nonfiction and Minnesota’s Book Award and Readers Choice Award\, it is the first memoir written by a Hmong-American to be published with national distribution. A Hmong written language was not taught or used until the 1950s\, so author Kao Kalia Yang plays a large role in bringing the culture into the realm of literature.\n\n\nThe Story \nTold with the immediacy of the author as a young girl\, born in the Ban Vinai Refugee camp in Thailand\, Kao Kalia arrives in the United States when she is six. The story follows her journey from a quiet\, reticent student struggling to speak English while facing racial discrimination\, to a self-empowered young woman claiming her voice to tell the untold story of her people. \nIn Performance \nAccomplished Hmong actress and traditional Flower Singer\, Gaosong Heu\, brings this powerful\, personal story to life\, with her musical talent and knowledge of Hmong culture. The performance tells a universal story of immigration\, through the specific lens of this ancient culture inextricably bound to the history of the war in Vietnam. \nFree Books: Plus\, pick up a free copy of The Latehomecomer by Kao Kalia Yang! Giveaway books will be available while supplies last. All giveaways are first come\, first served and limited to one per person.\nThis event will take place in person.
