In this special episode (a live event for the Streicker Center!), Zibby speaks to New York Times bestselling author Celeste Ng about Our Missing Hearts, a riveting and tender book about a 12-year-old boy’s quest to find his missing mother in a grim, dystopian world. Celeste talks about her book's most prominent elements: anti-Asian racism, the dangers of political extremism, and the power of stories as conduits of memory. She also describes her writing process, the project she paused (but might bring back to life!), and how she juggles her roles of author and mother. Finally, she answers questions from the audience.
