Simple Heart: An Evening of Story & Reflection

In a city as busy as Toronto, it’s rare to find an event that explicitly asks you to slow down and reflect. 'Simple Heart: An Evening of Story & Reflection' is exactly that—a curated literary gathering that moves beyond the standard book reading format.

The Experience This isn't just about listening to an author talk; it’s about connection. The evening centers on Cho Haejin’s book, 'Simple Heart,' a narrative that explores the profound questions of identity and belonging. The event features a live virtual conversation with the author, who will be joining from South Korea, providing a unique bridge between our city and her perspective.

Why You Should Attend If you’re looking for an event that offers depth and meaningful conversation, this is it. It’s an intimate space where stories are used as a catalyst for reflection. Whether you’re a fan of contemporary Korean literature or just someone looking for a thoughtful night out, you’ll find a welcoming environment here.
