Praise for Writers & Lovers "With wit and what reads like deep insider wisdom, Ms. King captures the chronic low-level panic of taking a leap into the artsy unknown and finding yourself adrift, without land or rescue in sight." -- Maureen Corrigan, Wall Street Journal "I loved this book not just from the first chapter or the first page but from the first paragraph . . . The voice is just so honest and riveting and insightful about creativity and life." -- Curtis Sittenfeld, London Evening Standard "[D]elightful ...

Praise for Writers & Lovers "With wit and what reads like deep insider wisdom, Ms. King captures the chronic low-level panic of taking a leap into the artsy unknown and finding yourself adrift, without land or rescue in sight." -- Maureen Corrigan, Wall Street Journal "I loved this book not just from the first chapter or the first page but from the first paragraph . . . The voice is just so honest and riveting and insightful about creativity and life." -- Curtis Sittenfeld, London Evening Standard "[D]elightful . . . [A]n unmistakable broadside against fiction's love affair with macho strivers, even -- or especially -- when layers of lyricism and tenderness coat their machismo. The emotional force of Writers & Lovers is considerable." -- New York Times Book Review "Wonderful, witty, heartfelt . . . Writers & Lovers is a funny novel about grief, and, worse, it's dangerously romantic, bold enough and fearless enough to imagine the possibility of unbounded happiness." -- Washington Post "This smooth, deliberate chronicle of creation keeps the men in their place and Casey firmly rooted at the center of her own story. Instead of casting her as a woman torn between archetypes of male creativity, Writers & Lovers portrays her as a woman in thrall to her own generative processes, a devotee to the art of (her own) attention." -- Los Angeles Times "Among the elements that make Writers & Lovers so winning are the perfectly calibrated little details, convincing conversations, and droll wit . . . Writers & Lovers is a book about passion, desire, grief, determination, and finding one's way. It's also about craving love, family, and success . . . generously infused with heart and soul and wit and wisdom." -- NPR "King has created a woman on the cusp of personal fulfillment and strong enough to stand on her own, someone akin to Sally Rooney's Frances in Conversations with Friends . . . But King also situates Casey inside a variation of the which-lover-will-she-choose framework of, say, Nancy Meyers's film Something's Gotta Give . . . The novel is a meditation on trying itself: to stay alive, to love, to care. That point feels so fresh, so powerfully diametrically opposed to the readily available cynicism we've been feasting on . . . King wants us to keep trying, through whatever means necessary, to beat the odds." -- Boston Globe "This novel will become a defining classic for struggling young writers."-- Vulture "King captures the agita of an early-life crisis and the eccentricities of a writer's life, spiking the narrative with wit, sumptuous imagery and hilarious skewerings of literary elitism." -- People " Writers & Lovers made me happy. Even as the narrator grieves the loss of her mother and struggles to make art and keep a roof over her head, the novel is suffused with hopefulness and kindness. Lily King writes with a great generosity of spirit." -- Ann Patchett, author of Tom Lake "Lily King is one of our great literary treasures and Writers & Lovers is suffused with her brilliance. It is captivating, potent, incisive, and wise, a moving story of grief, and recovering from grief, and of a young woman finding her courage for life." -- Madeline Miller, author of Circe "Gorgeous!" -- Elizabeth Strout, author of Olive Kitteridge "If you loved The Friend but wish it had had more sex and waitressing, get ready for Lily King's Writers & Lovers . Delicious." -- Emma Straub Praise for Euphoria "Taut, witty, fiercely intelligent . . . King is brilliant." -- New York Times Book Review "Intense, seductive, sexual, and intellectual . . . There are so many exhilarating elements to savor in E
