TIckets available Monday, March 4 at 9 am click here: An Evening with Lisa See
We’re thrilled to
welcome international bestselling author Lisa See as she launches her newest
novel, The
Island of Sea Women
Ms. See’s latest
novel deftly explores the complexities of female friendship and introduces
readers to the remarkably strong and spirited female divers of Jeju Island.
It’s also an eye-opening portrait of a country ravaged by decades of conflict
and unrest, and a searing examination of the effects that foreign intervention
can have on the evolution of a nation and of course individual lives. It
asks the eternal questions: How do we find forgiveness? Can we find
forgiveness? Booklist has called the novel, “A stupendous multigenerational
family saga, See’s latest also provides an enthralling cultural anthropology
highlighting the soon-to-be-lost, matriarchal haenyeo phenomenon and an
engrossing history of violently tumultuous twentieth-century Korea…
Stupendous…Mesmerizing.”
