TAP-NY Book Club: The Best We Could Do

April 12, 2018 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm EDT

Join us for TAP-NY’s Book Club, Spring Edition! We will be meeting to discuss The Best We Could Do by Thi Bui, an intimate and poignant graphic novel portraying one family’s journey from war-torn Vietnam.


This beautifully illustrated and emotional story is an evocative memoir about the search for a better future and a longing for the past. Exploring the anguish of immigration, Bui documents the story of her family’s daring escape after the fall of South Vietnam in the 1970s, and the difficulties they faced building new lives for themselves. 


With haunting, poetic writing and breathtaking art, she examines the strength of family, the importance of identity, and the meaning of home.


Please join us to share your thoughts and discuss the book over small bites in Manhattan (location to be disclosed at a later date). Sign up now to reserve your spot!
