In Lily King's Writers & Lovers, we meet Casey Peabody, a thirty-one-year-old woman grappling with her mother's unexpected death and a complicated love life while living in Massachusetts during the summer of 1997. As a former child golf prodigy waitressing in Harvard Square, she continues to pursue her dream of writing a novel, despite the pressures of mounting debts and personal loss. This poignant narrative captures Casey's journey through creativity, heartbreak, and the tumultuous transition from youth to adulthood, all infused with King's signature humor and insight.
