Description

Trevor and Sley House intern Paige Thompson are joined by Wen-yi Lee to talk about her adult fantasy novel When They Burned the Butterfly, available now from Tor books. They talk about the book's exploration of nation-making, queer identity-building, and how the book explores destruction and reconstruction, plus a whole lot more.


You can get the novel at your local library or your favorite book retailer, and you can check out Wen-yi Lee at www.wenyileewrites.com.
