Description
Blue Sisters by Coco Mellors is a contemporary literary novel about grief, addiction, identity and the complicated bonds between siblings. A year after the unexpected death of their sister Nicky, the three surviving Blue sisters return to their family home in New York to prevent its sale. Estranged and living very different lives, each has been dealing with the loss in her own way.
Avery, a recovering heroin addict and lawyer, has built a carefully controlled life in London; Bonnie, a former boxer, is working as a bouncer in Los Angeles after a devastating defeat; and Lucky, a model in Paris, is struggling with a life of partying and excess.
