Welcome to Meet the Writers.
Oh, thank you.
What a wowy introduction.
It's lovely, lovely to have you here.
And I know that Isherwood is a lifelong project for you.
This huge book that I've got in my hands is really the product of many years thinking and writing and being invol with this.
With this great author.
Let's talk about you, though, because you were born in Saigon.
Why was that?
Well, my parents were there.
