Living East Van, Writing East Van: A Literary Panel

Join moderator Norman Nawrocki in conversation with Evelyn Lau, Nick Marino, and Christina Shah, three acclaimed authors who write about and live (or have lived) in East Vancouver, for a panel discussion about literary representations of this vibrant, richly historic, and ever-changing neighbourhood.
