Emmeline Chang’s novel, THE AGONY OF THE LEAVES, tells the story of tea through the lives of the people it touches–from its mythic origins in ancient China to a contemporary queer teahouse. She is also working on a middle grade novel featuring Taiwanese ancestor ghosts under martial law.

A Taiwanese American, Emmeline often writes about people’s lives against the background of larger historical and social currents–especially through the lens of magic, the fantastic, or connection across time and space.

Her writing appears in HuffPost, ACM: Another Chicago Magazine, BigCityLit, and Seal Press and Tarcher/Putnam anthologies, and is supported by Tin House, VONA, the Kenyon Review, Ragdale, Millay, and VCCA. Her stories have also won awards or honorable mention from Glimmer Train, Tulip Tree Press, and Gival Press. She has taught writing at the PEN American Center and Gotham Writers’ Workshop. 

Emmeline graduated from Princeton, has an MFA from Columbia University, and lives in Brooklyn with her husband and two sons. She comes alive through ritual, ecstatic dancing, authentic conversations, and delicious food in almost any cuisine. Most of all, she loves a good story. Her website is www.emmelinechang.com.
