The National Endowment for the Arts Big Read broadens our understanding of our world, our neighbors, and ourselves through the power of a shared reading experience. This year’s selection is Interior Chinatown by Charles Yu. Interior Chinatown tells the story of Willis Wu, who has only ever been cast as the Generic Asian Man. Consigned to bit roles in the background of a procedural cop show, he dreams of playing Kung Fu Guy, the most respected role that anyone who looks like him can attain—or so he has always been told. The library is celebrating with events and conversations.
