What if beauty and ugliness were not opposites, but collided, coexisted, and shaped us? This is exactly what Ocean Vuong invites you to explore during his visit to Bozar. Through a selection of choice excerpts from his latest novel, The Emperor of Gladness, and earlier works, the Vietnamese-American poet and novelist offers an intimate conversation. He shares his reflections on identity, language, and how the luminous and the broken intertwine. A rare opportunity to meet one of today’s most tender and transformative literary voices.
