The BondGirl Books Rediscovered Classics Series brings to light literary treasures—timeless works by authors whose contributions have long awaited their rightful recognition.

​

Each author in this series offers profound insights into the nation's past, present, and future. From the haunting prose of William Wells Brown's Clotel, or The President’s Daughter, which sheds light on the harrowing experiences of the enslaved, to Charles W. Chesnutt's The House Behind The Cedars, exploring themes of race, identity, and social upheaval, BondGirl Books’ Rediscovered Classics Series honors these forgotten luminaries of American literature. By amplifying their voices, we ensure that their lessons endure for generations to come.

​

While reading is a solitary pleasure, we also cherish the communal joy of shared storytelling. Each book in our series includes chapter synopses and discussion prompts, making it an ideal companion for book club gatherings.

​

To further enhance this sense of camaraderie, our series offers a curated menu and detailed recipe guide, inspired by the meals that might have been savored by the characters within each narrative. For example, in Clotel, indulge in a delectable macaroni and cheese, echoing the flavors enjoyed by Thomas Jefferson under the culinary mastery of his chef, James Hemings. This culinary addition elevates the reading experience and enriches the shared joy of book club gatherings.

​

Each book in the series includes a foreword by a distinguished leader.  Famed Civil Rights Advocate Dr. Alveda King, Founder of the Frederick Douglass Freedom Alliance Troy Rolling and former Director of the United States Department of Commerce's Minority Business Development Agency, David Byrd are among the leaders who have penned forewords for the series.

The official launch of the series is January 2025.  Email media@basspublicaffairs.com to learn more.
