About this Event
Rose Diell's Fledging is a beautiful, allegorical novel that considers the decision whether to have a child. It's about Lia, who lays an egg. Her partner on tour on the other side of the world and her mother diagnosed with a terminal illness, Lia finds herself torn, unsure whether she's ready to give up on her songwriting dreams; but time is running out, and she must make one of the biggest decisions of her life.
Beautifully written and brilliantly original, Fledging is a riveting tale that asks what it is to lead a meaningful life, and sounds a resounding call for women to make their own choices, whether that means embracing motherhood or living child-free.
We look forward to the conversation that will emerge from this poignant, potent book.
