Join us May 20 at Sons & Daughters Winery for an evening with Vinh Nguyen, in conversation with Jolie Phuong Hoang about his compelling memoir The Migrant Rain Falls in Reverse.

Part fractured reminiscence, part invented history, and part fictional fabulation, Nguyen’s story is about learning to live with what’s already lost and the memories of what might have been.

The Migrant Rain Falls in Reverse was a finalist for the Toronto Book Awards, the Governor General's Award for Nonfiction, and the Hilary Weston-Writers Trust prize for Nonfiction. It was named a best book of 2025 by NPR, CBC Books, The Hill Times, The Grind, and The Soapberry Review.

Held at Sons & Daughters Winery in Pelham, a $45 ticket includes a glass of wine or beer. Non-alcoholic options will also be available. Additional beverages may be purchased.

Guests also have the option to purchase a charcuterie in a cup (vegetarian and vegan options available upon request; orders must be placed in advance).

6:45PM Doors open
7:30PM Author Conversation begins
8:30PM Book Signing begins

Someday Books will be onsite selling books.

A $20 tax receipt is included in your ticket purchase.

Please note tickets are non-refundable.

Tickets can be purchased at all LPPL branches and online: https://www.canadahelps.org/en/charities/the-town-of-pelham-public-library-board/events/books-on-the-bench-vinh-nguyen/
