SUMMARY:From the Big Apple to the West Lake: A New Yorker’s Encounter with China’s Hidden Gem Hangzhou
DESCRIPTION:In China\, the city of Hangzhou occupies its own special place in the country’s history and culture\, which persists to be one of the nation’s most cherished cities and among its most popular tourist destinations. As the southern terminus of the Grand Canal\, it was a capital city of imperial China for 150 years. Home to a million people at a time when London and Paris each barely reached 80\,000\, it was described by Marco Polo as “the greatest city which may be found in this world.” Stephen Koss\, a gifted storyteller and New Yorker who fell in love with Chinese culture and “disappears” to China regularly\, is bringing to us his new book By the Hills Embraced: A Social and Cultural History of Hangzhou\, China

SUMMARY:Spring Awakening
DESCRIPTION:First performed under heavy censorship in Germany in 1906\, Spring Awakening closed after one night in New York in 1917 amid public outrage and charges of obscenity. The play’s content was radical indeed: teenage sex\, suicide\, abortion\, masturbation\, sadomasochism. The story traces the dawning sexual awareness of four teenagers\, Melchior\, Moritz\, Wendla\, and Hansy\, who\, in their painfully funny contradictions—they are at once too innocent and not remotely innocent at all—remain fresh and unsettling even in our own sex-saturated culture.
