Mother Dearest: Understanding Our Mothers

A panel discussion featuring writers Abdellah Taïa, Gish Jen, and Molly Jong-Fast exploring their relationships with their mothers through three new books. Taïa's 'Living in Your Light' follows a Moroccan woman's life from 1954–1999; Jen's 'Bad Bad Girl' traces her mother's journey from Shanghai in 1924; Jong-Fast's 'How to Lose Your Mother' navigates her mother's dementia. Moderated by Dalia Azim, the conversation traverses Morocco, Shanghai, and 1970s New York City.
