Award-winning author Leslie Li reads from her new book The Forest From the Trees, newly released by Black Lawrence press. This hybrid novel - part prose, part screenplay - is a dark comedy about a clash of cultures and generations, a bi-racial coming-of-age story, and a psychological thriller about inherited trauma.

Author of three other books: the novel Bittersweet, the culinary memoir Daughter of Heaven, and Just Us Girls, the official companion book to her forthcoming feature-length documentary, The Kim Loo Sisters, the first Asian American act to star in Broadway revues and share top billing with Frank Sinatra.

Her work is supported with grants from the Freeman Foundation, New York State Council for the Arts, Lower Manhattan Cultural Council, and the Chinese Heritage Foundation.
