Phil Wang Instagram – Join us at @southbankcentre on 22 Sept for the closing night of ESEA Lit Fest, the UK’s award-winning East and South East Asian literary festival:
British-Malaysian stand-up comedian, writer and actor Phil Wang talks to Zing Tsjeng about his memoir Sidesplitter and what it means to be torn between two continents. Together they explore comedy and storytelling as a way of skewering the cultural narratives and tropes around diasporic identity.
Featured in the Guardian, Harper’s Bazaar and Elle, ESEA Lit Fest is a joyful, thought-provoking celebration of East and South East Asian literature and culture that’s open to all.
The day festival returns to Foyles Charing Cross Road with readings, conversations, workshops and a lunchtime charity fundraiser on Saturday 21st September. There will be displays of ESEA books throughout September at Foyles’ branches at Charing Cross Road and on the South Bank, celebrating ESEA Heritage Month.
ESEA Lit Fest is supported by @hachetteuk and their employee network @thrivehachette, @paperliterary and @bagrifoundation.
