Virtual Event

Writing Women, Writing Resilience [2021 Virginia Festival of the Book]

Susan Abulhawa (Against the Loveless World), Peace Adzo Medie (His Only Wife), and Muse teacher Diane Zinna (The All-Night Sun) discuss their new novels and the irrepressible women whose stories they tell, including a young Palestinian reflecting on her life while in solitary confinement, a young seamstress in Ghana seeking independence while navigating marriage and family, and an American teacher traveling in Sweden who is forced to finally come to grips with her buried grief.

To join, register on Eventbrite.

A recording of the live event will be available at https://vabook.org/by-type/recaps/
