    About American Hwang: A Conversation with Min Jin Lee

    At the Kupferberg Center for the Arts, **American Hwang: A Conversation with Min Jin Lee** brings the novelist to a New York City audience for a public talk about her work and career. Lee, whose novels *Free Food for Millionaires* and *Pachinko* trace immigrant life, class pressure, and ambition, discusses how those books were built on the page. The format is plainspoken and literary, focused on craft rather than spectacle. In a city that helps shape contemporary American publishing, the event reads as a document of how Korean diasporic stories entered the mainstream.
