Lui will share stories of how intertwined such spaces are with the city’s culture, over a steaming cup of milk tea and an egg tart or two.
Local poet Akin Jeje launches his the highly anticipated book, Write About Here – captivating collection of Hong Kong and global poems that delve into the triumphs of human experience here, there and everywhere
And – in a talk moderated by HKFP’s Executive Editor Mercedes Hutton – poet and activist Azam Abidov will discuss how he pushed the boundaries of creativity to become an internationally-recognised writer despite spending most of his life in Uzbekistan, a country where free speech is often censored and curtailed.
