Krystal Sital, critically acclaimed author of ‘Secrets We Kept - Three Women of Trinidad chats with Donna Hemans about her sophomore novel ‘Tea by the Sea’.

Listen as Donna shares the inspiration for the story and reads excerpts of the book.

About Tea by the Sea
This a masterfully expressed story of one mother’s relentless search for a daughter lost as a newborn, that will touch that most umbilical place inside of you. Written in tender, descriptive and attentive prose, Hemans brings to the fore questions about family, parenthood, deeply-entrenched gender roles, abandonment and loss. More beautifully, she leaves those questions to the reader to unearth those answers.
