LUCY BY THE SEA - ELIZABETH STROUT GEBUNDEN

'A superbly gifted storyteller and a craftswoman in a league of her own' Hilary MantelFrom the
Pulitzer prize-winning  Booker-shortlisted author of MY NAME IS LUCY BARTON and OH WILLIAM! 'It
is a gift in this life that we do not know what awaits us' In March 2020 Lucy Barton's
ex-husband William pleads with her to leave New York and escape to a coastal house he has
rented in Maine. Lucy reluctantly agrees  leaving the washing-up in the sink  expecting to be
back in a week or two. Weeks turn into months  and it's just Lucy  William  and their complex
past together in a little house nestled against the sea. Rich with empathy and a searing
clarity  Lucy by the Sea evokes the fragility and uncertainty of the recent past  as well as
the possibilities that those long  quiet days can inspire. At the heart of this miraculous
novel are the deep human connections that sustain us  even as the world seems to be falling
apart. 'A terrific writer' Zadie Smith 'She gets better with each book' Maggie O'Farrell 'Lucy
by the Sea might be my favourite Elizabeth Strout novel yet. Such grace  such empathy  such
exquisite and sharp observation - and yet so very much itself too. No one else writes like
Elizabeth Strout' Rachel Joyce
