Interviews

Below are my guest appearances on podcasts, networks and other publications regarding my book China Girl as well as my work in general.

Interview with Author Jhon Sanchez
“I tried to present a realistic portrait of an everyday woman in China. There’s a sadness in her situation, but also moments of connection and joy. For me, it sums up what China is about—it’s not an easy place to live, but it has a certain energy and rhythm unlike anywhere else.”

Interview with The Wombwell Rainbow
“My first direct contact with fiction probably came with the children’s book Goodnight Moon — my brain registered the unreality of the narrative, as we move from day to night in just a few pages, but I was inspired by its creativity, as time collapsed. I wanted to be on the other end of that exchange, constructing something that would give a reader a similar sense of ‘wow.’”

Face 2 Face Interview with David Andersson
I chat about China Girl, culture clash and the future of China.

Interview with Get the Funk Out!
I join Janeane Bernstein’s podcast to talk about China Girl and my cultural/familial connections with China.
