"Sharply written and deeply moving characters, raising brutal questions and steering clear of easy answers.” -Taylor Jenkins Reid

P&T Knitwear is pleased to welcome Lolá Ákínmádé Åkerström to celebrate and discuss her new book, Bitter Honey: a story about a mother and daughter divided by long buried secrets, struggling to understand each other as they forge their own paths.

Lolá will be joined in conversation by Jordan Hernandez. Along with a discussion and audience Q&A, Lolá will also sign copies of her book.
