Join us to celebrate the publication of M Lin’s debut short story collection, The Memory Museum!

This collection of short stories focuses on the experiences of women in China and the Chinese diaspora. The work oscillates between reality and the future, extending from China to the United States and beyond, depicting the complex tensions of migration, memory, and cross-cultural survival. With a delicate and insightful touch, M Lin writes about race, class, intimate relationships, and individual circumstances, capturing the subtle yet real connections between people in an uncertain world.

M Lin was born in Beijing and now lives in New York, writing in English as a second language. Her work has appeared in Ploughshares, Joyland, The New York Times, and other publications.

This event will be hosted by poet and translator Wei-Jia Pan, whose debut poetry collection, Motherlands, was selected by Louise Glück for the 2023 Max Ritvo Poetry Prize.
