Author Nicole Chung will discuss her memoir "All You Can Ever Know," answer questions from the audience and sign books. Copies of the book will be available for purchase through Magic City Books.

What does it mean to lose your roots – within your culture, within your family – and what happens when you find them?

Join Tulsa County residents in reading Nicole Chung’s 2018 memoir "All You Can Ever Know." With warmth, candor and startling insight, Chung, who was born to Korean parents and raised by a white family, tells of her search for the people who gave her up, in this profound, moving chronicle of surprising connections and the repercussions of unearthing painful family secrets.

Read the book, meet the author, and join the conversation about this important, meaningful book!

Register for event updates. Seating for this event will be available on a first-come-first-serve basis.
