Please join author EJ Koh for a reading about her new novel The Liberators.

At this stop on her virtual book tour, Koh will be introduced by writer Ucheoma Onwutuebe and the reading will be followed by a conversation with BMI Executive Director Colette LaBouff. 

About The Liberators: From the Gwangju Massacre to the 1988 Olympics, flashbacks to Korean repatriation after Japanese surrender, and the Sewol ferry accident, E. J. Koh’s exquisitely drawn portraits and symphonic testimony from guards, prisoners, perpetrators, and liberators spans continents and four generations of two Korean families forever changed by fateful past decisions made in love and war. Extraordinarily beautiful and deeply moving, The Liberators is an elegantly wrought family saga of memory, trauma, and empathy, and a stunning testament to the consequences and fortunes of inheritance.
