Global BC Presents: Jen Sookfong Lee
Description
July 7, 2023
Pop culture is all around us: the Kardashians, memes, TikTok, Twitter, and TMZ… some people try to avoid it, but Vancouver writer Jen Sookfong Lee has embraced it since she was a little girl. And it’s the basis of her new memoir, Superfan: How Pop Culture Broke My Heart. From Bob Ross to Rihanna to Anne of Green Gables, they were all part of her life’s pivotal moments. Sophie Lui and Jen Sookfong Lee had lunch in Chinatown and talked about her new book.
