Warwick's will host Eric Nguyen as he discusses his debut novel, Things We Lost to the Water, in conversation. Eric Nguyen earned an MFA in Creative Writing from McNeese State University in Louisiana. He has been awarded fellowships from Lambda Literary, Voices of Our Nation Arts (VONA), and the Tin House Writers Workshop. He is the editor in chief of diaCRITICS.org. He lives in Washington, DC.

A stunning debut novel about an immigrant Vietnamese family who settles in New Orleans and struggles to remain connected to one another as their lives are inextricably reshaped.

When Huong arrives in New Orleans with her two young sons, she is jobless, homeless, and worried about her husband, Cong, who remains in Vietnam. As she and her boys begin to settle in to life in America, she continues to send letters and tapes back to Cong, hopeful that they will be reunited and her children will grow up with a father.

But with time, Huong realizes she will never see her husband again. While she attempts to come to terms with this loss, her sons, Tuan and Binh, grow up in their absent father's shadow, haunted by a man and a country trapped in their memories and imaginations. As they push forward, the three adapt to life in America in different ways: Huong gets involved with a Vietnamese car salesman who is also new in town; Tuan tries to connect with his heritage by joining a local Vietnamese gang; and Binh, now going by Ben, embraces his adopted homeland and his burgeoning sexuality. Their search for identity - as individuals and as a family - threatens to tear them apart, un­til disaster strikes the city they now call home and they are suddenly forced to find a new way to come together and honor the ties that bind them.

In this talk, Kyle Handley will discuss his research and those by others about the reduction in trade policy uncertainty from the 1990s to 2000s before and after China joined the WTO in late 2001. the U.S. commitments induced market entry and more imports from China through the 2000s. Similarly, China's commitments on its own import tariffs increased uptake of foreign intermediate inputs and trade. the fall in trade policy uncertainty during this period had some important implications for U.S. prices and employment. in contrast, the new trade war tariffs and increase in policy uncertainty during the U.S.-China trade war may cast a long shadow on business confidence and global trade. Unwinding the tariffs and restoring credibility of regional trade agreements and the WTO will require significant work. the talk will be moderated by Victor Shih.

Join SDSU Chair of European Studies Clarissa Clò and UCSD Professor of Italian Studies Pasquale Verdicchio in an exploration of historical causes and experiential observations on the relationship between Italy's North and South. Our panelists will share scholarly and experiential views on how inequities and prejudices between the two geographical realities have come to be. Pasquale grew up in Naples, in the south, and Clarissa in Modena, in the north, and both look at Italy from a diasporic position, as long time San Diego residents. Their reflections consider how South-North differences may be lived in Italy and then morph into new considerations when moving abroad to the United States.
