media release: A Room of One's Own welcomes Vivian Krishnan for a reading and conversation of her debut book: Kula in the Sky

This event is in person on our back patio.

About Kula in the Sky: Kula and Yasi are sisters who have spent their whole life together, but when Yasi enters womanhood and her responsibilities change, she no longer has time to play with her little sister and Kula feels left alone in the dark. Kula goes on an emotional journey with her clever new bat friend as she realizes that even though things will never go back to the way they used to be, it doesn’t mean she is less loved by the ones close to her.
