Nami Mun.
Chicago now claims Nami Mun as its own. But her journey has been a winding one. Eight Forty-Eight’s book critic Donna Seaman brings us a conversation with the writer. Mun is author of Miles from Nowhere, and a recipient of this year's Whiting Writers Award, which recognizes promising writers early on in their careers.

Music Button: Osso, "Year of the Dragon", from the CD Run Rabbit Run, (Asthmatic Kitty)
