[SOLD OUT] Kumi Taguchi in conversation with Julia Baird (SOLD OUT)
About
Join us for an evening of captivating emotional honesty with Kumi Taguchi, in conversation with Julia Baird.Growing up, Kumi Taguchi thought her father was merely distant: reserved, obsessively frugal and – after her parents’ divorce – almost entirely missing. When he died, Kumi’s feelings about him and the Japanese heritage he had given her remained tangled.
But just because a parent has gone doesn’t mean they’re absent. Over time Kumi came to understand more about her father, including his experiences as a child in wartime Japan and, above all, the culture she both loved and felt burdened by.
Kumi's exquisite memoir is an incredibly moving exploration of history, place and personal relationships.
