ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

"Where the Crawdads Sing" by Delia Owens follows the life of Kya Clark, a young girl abandoned by her family and left to survive alone in the marshes of North Carolina. As she navigates her isolation, Kya develops a deep bond with nature, which becomes both her refuge and teacher. The novel explores themes of loneliness, resilience, and the human need for connection, juxtaposed with societal prejudice against those who are different. When a local man is found dead, Kya becomes the prime suspect, forcing her to confront her past and the judgments of the world around her.
