Author Talk with Lisa See



National best-selling novelist Lisa See, author of New York Times Notable Book On Gold Mountain, will discuss her new book, Snow Flower and the Secret Fan. Set in 19th century China, this absorbing novel follows the relationship between two women and the friendship and love that sustains them through their lives. Snow Flower is based on the secret language, nu shu, or “women’s writing,” that was developed by women in a remote county and kept secret for thousands of years. See will discuss and sign copies of her book that has already received advanced acclaim and praise from critics.
