The Chatham Square Branch of the New York Public Library welcomes Elizabeth Miki Brina, author of Speak, Okinawa, to its popular, author-led book discussion series, "Talking Books: Asian American Authors in Conversation." Speak, Okinawa?has received tremendous critical acclaim. The Washington Post review offers the following: “Brina recounts, with piercing candidness and clarity, the almost claustrophobic world of an only child and her parents . . . The memoir is also a portrait of the devastating effects of imperialism and racism on a person’s identity, self-worth, and relationships—and offers a perspective on how a person can combat these legacies.”
