Praise for Writers & Lovers "Lily King is one of our great literary treasures and Writers & Lovers is suffused with her brilliance. It is captivating, potent, incisive, and wise, a moving story of grief, and recovering from grief, and of a young woman finding her courage for life." --Madeline Miller, author of Circe "Gorgeous!"-- Elizabeth Strout, author of Olive Kitteridge Writers & Lovers is a portrait of the artist as a young woman. Lily King writes masterfully about desire and loss, creativity and inspiration, and how each overlaps and influences the other. I found myself reading slowly, underlining phrases, wanting to linger in the world of this novel. Her insights about love -- how it is elusive and ineffable -- and about grief -- how it is something that you live inside -- took my breath away." --Christina Baker Kline, author of A Peace of the World "Writers & Lovers stole my heart from its first pages. I am in love with this book. In. Love. This deep dive of a novel will stay with me forever." -- Elin Hilderbrand, author of Summer of '69 "My favourite of Lily King's books so far. Exuberant and affirming, it's funny and immensely clever, emotionally rare and strong. I feel bereft now I've finished." --Tessa Hadley, author of Late In The Day Praise for Euphoria "Taut, witty, fiercely intelligent... King is brilliant."-- New York Times Book Review "Intense, seductive, sexual, and intellectual... There are so many exhilarating elements to savor in Euphoria ... Brava to Lily King."-- San Francisco Chronicle "As concentrated as orchid food, packing as much narrative power and intellectual energy into its 250 pages as novels triple its size."-- Newsday "Atmospheric and sensual... An intellectually stimulating tour de force."--NPR Praise for Father of the Rain "Surprising and wise...An absorbing, insightful story written in cool, polished prose right to the last conflicted line."-- Washington Post "King is a beautiful writer, with equally strong gifts for dialogue and internal monologue."-- New York Times Book Review "Haunting, incisive...King is brilliant."-- Elle "An excellent novel, sensitive and perceptive."-- Chicago Tribune, Praise for Writers & Lovers Named one of The 50 Most Anticipated Books of 2020 by Entertainment Weekly Named one of 19 Books We Can't Wait to Read in 2020 by Amazon Book Review Named one of The 2020 Books You Should Pre-Order Now by Marie Claire Named one of 32 Best New Books of 2020 by Vulture Named one of Lit Hub's Most Anticipated Books of 2020 "This novel will become a defining classic for struggling young writers."-- Vulture "King leaves no barrier between readers and smart, genuine, cynical, and funny Casey.

Synopsis
#ReadWithJenna Book Club Pick as Featured on Today Emma Roberts Belletrist Book Club Pick A New York Times Book Review's Group Text Selection "I loved this book not just from the first chapter or the first page but from the first paragraph... The voice is just so honest and riveting and insightful about creativity and life." --Curtis Sittenfeld An extraordinary new novel of art, love, and ambition from Lily King, the New York Times bestselling author of Euphoria Following the breakout success of her critically acclaimed and award-winning novel Euphoria, Lily King returns with another instant New York Times bestseller: an unforgettable portrait of an artist as a young woman. Blindsided by her mother's sudden death, and wrecked by a recent love affair, Casey Peabody has arrived in Massachusetts in the summer of 1997 without a plan. Her mail consists of wedding invitations and final notices from debt collectors. A former child golf prodigy, she now waits tables in Harvard Square and rents a tiny, moldy room at the side of a garage where she works on the novel she's been writing for six years. At thirty-one, Casey is still clutching onto something nearly all her old friends have let go of: the determination to live a creative life. When she falls for two very different men at the same time, her world fractures even more. Casey's fight to fulfill her creative ambitions and balance the conflicting demands of art and life is challenged in ways that push her to the brink. Writers & Lovers follows Casey--a smart and achingly vulnerable protagonist--in the last days of a long youth, a time when every element of her life comes to a crisis. Written with King's trademark humor, heart, and intelligence, Writers & Lovers is a transfixing novel that explores the terrifying and exhilarating leap between the end of one phase of life and the beginning of another., #ReadWithJenna Book Club Pick as Featured on Today Emma Roberts Belletrist Book Club Pick A New York Times Book Review 's Group Text Selection "I loved this book not just from the first chapter or the first page but from the first paragraph...

- r***l (153)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaGood Seller, shipping was quick, not totally as described as there is no photo of the back and when received had sticker on the back (wouldn't have bought if known), and there are a few minor tears in the plastic wrap around the game that weren't described as well. I am happy with the product and the cost, however a little disappointed with the description of the product not being accurate. Although still a good seller..

They always describe the item in an accurate way and if there are any flaws they list them or contact you to let you know. Also their shipping is very great as it is usually free. And they offer discounts on multiple items.
