Penguin Live in partnership with Bad Form are thrilled to present Yaa Gyasi in conversation with Nesrine Malik.

Join Yaa Gyasi, best-selling author of Homegoing, as she launches her new and highly anticipated novel Transcendent Kingdom. It follows Gifty as she discovers more about her family’s story, tracing it back through continents and generations that take her deep into the dark heart of modern America.

Yaa will be in conversation about the themes of her latest novel, including immigration, generational trauma and the opioid addiction issue in America. She will also speak about her writing process, and how she created a searing story of love, loss and redemption, which showcases the myriad ways we try to rebuild our lives from the rubble of our collective pasts.

Yaa will be in conversation with writer and author Nesrine Malik. Nesrine Malik is a British Sudanese columnist, features writer for The Guardian and author of We Need New Stories: Challenging the Toxic Myths Behind Our Age of Discontent.

Don’t miss what promises to be an illuminating and fascinating discussion. You will also get the chance to ask Yaa your own questions during the event.
