Ocean Vuong comes to the Brooklyn Academy of Music for an evening of conversation with writer Mahogany L. Browne to celebrate the launch of the highly anticipated second poetry collection, Time Is a Mother. In these poems, Vuong searches for life among the aftershocks of his mother’s death, embodying the paradox of sitting within grief while being determined to survive beyond it. At once vivid, brave, and propulsive, Vuong’s poems circle fragmented lives to find both restoration as well as the epicenter of the break. Join the On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous author for a discussion of memory, personal loss, and the meaning of family. Ocean Vuong in Conversation Details & Tickets
