ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

“The Secret Life of Bees” by Sue Monk Kidd follows Lily Owens, a 14-year-old girl who escapes her troubled life in South Carolina to search for answers about her mother's death. She travels with Rosaleen, a black woman who works for her family, to Tiburon, where they are taken in by the Boatwright sisters—three African American women who run a beekeeping business. The novel explores themes of motherhood, forgiveness, racial prejudice, and the search for identity, using the symbolism of bees and the Black Madonna to highlight the interconnectedness of life and the divine strength of women.
