A New York Times bestseller, Chris Cleave's incandescent novel, Little Bee, was an instant favorite with readers.
Little Bee tells the story of a young Nigerian girl, Little Bee, a refugee from the internecine tribal oil wars of her country, who has fled to England in order to survive. With this entertaining, poignant, and thought-provoking novel, Chris Cleave has crafted a story about many things, both large and small: the plight of refugees, the quiet violence of selfishness, the last vestiges of hope in a grueling world, and the dilemma of being human.
A book signing will follow the presentation and books will be available for purchase.
