Writers & Lovers: A Novel
🔥Editors’ Pick — Why It Hooks YouBoston/Cambridge, 1997: Casey Peabody waits tables in Harvard Square, drowns in debt and fresh grief, and refuses to let go of the novel she’s spent six years writing. Caught between two very different men—Oscar, a steady widower and celebrated author, and Silas, a magnetic wild card—she has to choose what kind of life (and art) she wants. The service-industry realism, the anxious thrill of chasing a creative dream, and the quiet aftershocks of a mother’s death make this both tender and propulsive—and her hard-won career break lands with a fist-pump. Critically acclaimed by NPR and The Washington Post, and already set for a film adaptation directed by Toni Collette, it’s contemporary fiction that goes down easy and stays with you.
