Kuang’s recent book, “Yellowface,” whose sharp examination of anxiety, competition, and the strange toxic alchemy of old friendships had Laura all in knots. We talk about adult friendships, the unique challenges of time and unequal status that sometimes disrupt them, and how we can confront these emotionally fraught connections with grace. Join us!
