The Invention of Wings won the 2014 Florida Book Award for General Fiction and was an Oprah's Book Club 2.0 pick. A summary of the novel is that it's a historical fiction story inspired by the lives of real-life abolitionists Sarah Grimké and her sister, and their housemaid, Handful. The story follows both women's lives from childhood to womanhood as they forge a friendship despite their different social classes and racial statuses, navigating their own journeys toward freedom and empowerment in the 19th-century American South.
