On this episode of Complicated Conversations we welcome Fiona Davis, New York Times bestselling author of historical fiction novels, to discuss her latest, The Stolen Queen, which she describes as Thelma and Louise meets Indiana Jones!
Fiona discusses her journey from actress to journalist to novelist, the viral Met Gala picture (involving Kim Kardashian!) that inspired the novel, and the complexities of writing historical fiction. She shares insights on character development, the importance of research, and the ethical considerations surrounding art repatriation. The conversation also touches on the serendipitous nature of writing, which we love!
The Stolen Queen is out now!
