Chung’s writing is masterful, and Sea Change is gloriousBryan Washington, author of Memorial and Lot
There are no limits to what Chung can do. Her prose is so immersively beautiful that at times I felt swept away in a wave, admiring from underwater, her scintillating refractions of light.Weike Wang, author of Chemistry
Sea Change tugged at my heart and refused to let go. With tenderness and perceptiveness, Chung deftly navigates family, loss, friendship and the intricacies of love, especially for ourselvesElaine Hsieh Chou, author of Disorientation
