Global Citizen: River of Love and other essays - Paperback

by Stan Chung (Author)

Originally published in 2008, Global Citizen became an instant best seller. What started out as a newspaper column in the Kelowna Daily Courier in 2006, became a much loved and much read book. After three printings, is now available online to be shared with the world. Stan Chung never thought anybody would care to hear about his parents, their struggles, and his upbringing as the son of a Korean-born United Church minister. He never thought of his experience as extraordinary. After all, everybody has a story. He was surprised when readers greeted his explorations into his life, his community and the world we live in with praise and requests for more. Emails flooded in when he struck an emotional core. He began to talk more openly about things like suicide, the death of his mother, his father's illness and even politics. Stan found the more he risked, the more he personally connected with his community.
