@FCAM_Org Hi, does your organization have an email? I am the author of a new memoir, "Everything I Learned, I Learned in a Chinese Restaurant." I will be visiting the UK (from LA) in May and would love to do a book reading in Manchester! My email is info@curtisfromdetroit.com

Thanks for selecting my book as a Top Ten finalist.
In @Curtischin's memoir, he writes about growing up gay and Chinese in Detroit in the 1980s, when his grandfather opened Chung's Cantonese Cuisine. The restaurant became a hub for a huge variety of patrons.
