ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
“The Invention of Wings” by Sue Monk Kidd is a historical novel set in early 19th-century Charleston, focusing on the lives of Sarah Grimké, a Southern abolitionist, and Hetty (Handful), the enslaved girl given to Sarah as a child. The novel explores themes of slavery, freedom, and personal transformation as both women navigate the oppressive systems of race and gender. As Sarah fights for the abolition of slavery and women’s rights, Handful seeks her own path to freedom, leading to a powerful, intertwined story of resistance, self-discovery, and the quest for justice.
