SUMMARY:Author Talk: Sanjena Sathian's Novel 'Gold Diggers'
DESCRIPTION:How far would you go for a piece of the American dream? \nA magical realist coming-of-age story\, Gold Diggers by Sanjena Sathian skewers the model minority myth to tell a hilarious and moving story about immigrant identity\, community\, and the underside of ambition. \nA floundering second-generation teenager growing up in the Bush-era Atlanta suburbs\, Neil Narayan struggles to bear the weight of expectations of his family and their Asian American enclave. He tries to want their version of success\, but mostly\, Neil just wants his neighbor across the cul-de-sac\, Anita Dayal. \nWhen he discovers that Anita is the beneficiary of an ancient\, alchemical potion made from stolen gold—a “lemonade” that harnesses the ambition of the gold’s original owner—Neil sees his chance to get ahead. But events spiral into a tragedy that rips their community apart. Years later in the Bay Area\, Neil still bristles against his community’s expectations—and finds he might need one more hit of that lemonade\, no matter the cost. \nThis event will be held in person at the Atlanta History Center\, but it will also be livestreamed. Woodruff Auditorium is located inside McElreath Hall. Doors and cash bar will open at 6pm. \nAbout the Author\nA Paul and Daisy Soros fellow\, Sanjena Sathian is a 2019 graduate of the Iowa Writers’ Workshop. She has worked as a reporter in Mumbai and San Francisco\, with nonfiction bylines for The New Yorker\, The New York Times\, Food & Wine\, The Washington Post\, Vox\, TIME\, and more. Her award-winning short fiction has been published in The Atlantic\, Conjunctions\, Boulevard\, Joyland\, Salt Hill\, and The Master’s Review. \nPromotional language provided by publisher.

SUMMARY:Book Talk With Eric Kim\, Author of 'Korean American\,' with Jean Kim and Kim Severson
DESCRIPTION:Join the Atlanta History Center for an author talk on “Korean American\,” a cookbook paying homage to what it means to be Korean American\, with delectable recipes that explore how new culinary traditions can be forged to honor both your past and your present. \nNew York Times staff writer Eric Kim grew up in Atlanta\, the son of two Korean immigrants. Food has always been central to his story\, from Friday-night Korean barbecue with his family to hybridized Korean-ish meals for one — like Gochujang-Buttered Radish Toast and Caramelized-Kimchi Baked Potatoes — that he makes in his tiny New York City apartment. In his debut cookbook\, Eric shares these recipes alongside insightful\, touching stories and stunning images shot by photographer Jenny Huang.Playful\, poignant\, and vulnerable\, Korean American also includes essays on subjects ranging from the life-changing act of leaving home and returning as an adult\, to what Thanksgiving means to a first-generation family\, complete with a full holiday menu — all the while teaching readers about the Korean pantry\, the history of Korean cooking in America\, and the importance of white rice in Korean cuisine. Recipes like Gochugaru Shrimp and Grits and Smashed Potatoes with Roasted-Seaweed Sour Cream demonstrate Eric’s prowess at introducing Korean pantry essentials to comforting American classics\, while dishes such as Cheeseburger Kimbap and Crispy Lemon-Pepper Bulgogi do the opposite by tinging traditional Korean favorites with beloved American flavor profiles. Baked goods like Milk Bread with Maple Syrup and Gochujang Chocolate Lava Cakes close out the narrative on a sweet note. \nIn this book of recipes and thoughtful insights\, especially about his mother\, Jean\, Eric divulges not only what it means to be Korean American but how\, through food and cooking\, he found acceptance\, strength\, and the confidence to own his story. \nAbout the Author\nEric Kim is a New York Times staff food writer born and raised in Atlanta\, Georgia. He worked his way through the literary and culinary world to eventually become a digital manager at Food Network and a senior editor at Food52\, where he amassed a devoted readership for his “Table for One” column. He now hosts regular videos on NYT Cooking’s YouTube channel. A former contributing editor at Saveur\, Eric taught writing and literature at Columbia University\, and his work has been featured in The Washington Post\, Bon Appétit\, and Food & Wine. He lives with his rescue pup\, Quentin Compson\, in New York City. \nAbout the Moderator\nKim Severson is a national food correspondent for the New York Times. She was previously the New York Times Southern bureau chief and\, before that\, a staff writer for the Food section. Severson won the 2018 Pulitzer Prize for Public Service for her contributions to the team that investigated sexual harassment and abuse against women. She has also won four James Beard awards and the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism for her work on childhood obesity. She was a staff writer at the San Francisco Chronicle and before that\, an editor and reporter at the Anchorage Daily News in Alaska.

SUMMARY:Authors Amplified: Hannah Palmer's 'Flight Path: A Search for Roots beneath the World's Busiest Airport'
DESCRIPTION:Global Atlanta’s Authors Amplified series highlighting Georgia voices in global affairs continues with an in-person interview with Hannah Palmer on her first book released\, Flight Path: A Search for Roots beneath the World’s Busiest Airport. \nTickets for the in-person reception are $15 each and include light bites and wine\, beer\, and water available. \nThere will be a meet and greet at 5:00 p.m. in advance of the interview at 5:30 P.M. Can’t make it? The interview portion of this event will also be broadcast and viewable free of charge via Zoom. Please select your preferred option when registering. \nSponsored by Gene Kansas Commercial Real Estate: \n \nHosted by Constellations\, home to the Global Atlanta offices:  \n \nAbout the Book\nIn the months leading up to the birth of her first child\, Hannah Palmer discovers that all three of her childhood houses have been wiped out by the expansion of Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport. Having uprooted herself from a promising career in publishing in her adopted Brooklyn\, Palmer embarks on a quest to determine the fate of her lost homes—and of a community that has been erased by unchecked Southern progress. \nPalmer’s journey takes her from the ruins of kudzu-covered\, airport-owned ghost towns to carefully preserved cemeteries wedged between the runways; into awkward confrontations with airport planners\, developers\, and even her own parents. Along the way\, Palmer becomes an amateur detective\, an urban historian\, and a mother. \nLyrically chronicling the overlooked devastation and beauty along the airport’s fringe communities in the tradition of John Jeremiah Sullivan and Leslie Jamison\, Palmer unearths the startling narratives about race\, power\, and place that continue to shape American cities. \nPart memoir\, part urban history\, Flight Path: A Search for Roots beneath the World’s Busiest Airport is a riveting account of one young mother’s attempt at making a home where there’s little home left. \n  \nAbout the Author\nHannah Palmer works as an urban designer in Atlanta. She writes about the intersection of southern stories and urban landscapes for venues like Art Papers\, Atlanta Magazine\, Southern Cultures\, and Canopy Atlanta. A graduate of Agnes Scott College\, she earned an MFA in Creative Writing from Sewanee: The University of the South. She lives on the southside with her husband and sons. Flight Path is her first book. \n  \nAbout the Series\nGeorgia’s deep pool of international expertise is sometimes hidden in the ivory towers of academia or overshadowed by looming national figures. Sought-after thought leaders sometimes shine globally while being ignored in their own backyard. \nWith Authors Amplified\, a monthly series of book talks open to subscribers and the public\, Global Atlanta showcases authoritative local voices in foreign affairs and international business while highlighting the state’s intellectual contributions to important global conversations. \nThe Authors Amplified series is presented by the Atlanta Global Studies Center (AGSC)\, a partnership of Georgia Institute of Technology and Georgia State University\, funded in part by a US Department of Education Title VI National Resource Center grant\, with a mission to empower the metro region’s global agenda.
