Bay Area Book Festival Hosts Lisa See and Sue Monk Kidd for Braving Deep Waters

Our client Bay Area Book Festival hosted bestselling novelists Lisa See and Sue Monk Kidd for a virtual #UNBOUND conversation titled Braving Deep Waters: Female Fearlessness and Friendship, moderated by novelist Aimee Phan.

Both authors have built careers on richly researched historical fiction centered on women pushing against the constraints of their time, See in works spanning multiple generations of Chinese and Chinese American women, Kidd in novels like The Secret Life of Bees and The Invention of Wings. The conversation focused on friendship between women as a source of courage, a theme that runs through both authors' most recent work, and gave the virtual festival one of its highest-profile literary pairings of the entire #UNBOUND series.

Booking two bestselling authors for the same stage is exactly the kind of high-profile pairing our press campaigns work to secure. Read the full roundup on SF Chronicle.
