Book Launch Party: The Temperature of This Water May 27, 2004

Join us at the launch for Ishle Yi Park's new book, The Temperature of This Water (Kaya Press), with an introduction by Eric Gamalinda. Park's vision encompasses the lovers, criminals, mothers, and gangbangers who live behind the closed doors of New York City immigrant life, tracing the paths of prisoners meeting girlfriends, Korean comfort women, and .44s shot from rooftops in Brooklyn.
