Casey is lost. She is mourning the death of her mother, the novel she has been writing for six years isn’t going anywhere, and her debt is soaring. Surely at thirty-one, when all her friends are getting married and having kids, she is too old for things to be this way.

Then she meets Silas. He is kind, handsome, interested. But only a few weeks later, Oscar – older, fascinating, complicated – walks into her life, his two boys in tow. Suddenly Casey finds herself at the point of a love triangle, torn between two very different futures . . .

Funny and heartbreaking, Writers & Lovers is Lily King's bitingly clever modern classic.
