Keeper of Lost Children: Book Club & Author Talk with Sadeqa Johnson

New York Times bestselling author Sadeqa Johnson joins The Flourish Collective to discuss her latest novel, Keeper of Lost Children. Set in the years following World War II, the story follows an American officer's wife in occupied Germany who is moved to help find homes for the mixed-race children of German mothers and Black American GIs — a decision whose ripple effects reach across decades and continents, touching a soldier who falls in love in Germany and, years later, a young woman in 1960s Maryland uncovering a hidden piece of her own identity. Woven together, these three lives explore how one woman's vision can shape generations, and how love — familial, parental, forbidden, even love of self — can transcend it all. Come ready for rich conversation about history, identity, and belonging with the author herself.
