Dazed by the sudden death of her mother and devastated after an affair, Casey Peabody arrives in Massachusetts in the summer of 1997 without a plan in mind. The only correspondence she receives are wedding invitations and debt notices. Once a child golf prodigy, Casey now works as a waitress at a Harvard Square restaurant and rents a small room where she writes a novel, which she has been devoted to for six years. At thirty-one, she still clings to an ideal that many of her friends have already abandoned: the intention to live off her creativity. And when she falls in love with two completely opposite men at the same time, her world is fractured even more. Casey's struggle to balance her creative ambitions and the demands of her personal life push her to unthinkable limits. Writers and Lovers presents us with an intelligent and tremendously vulnerable protagonist who lives the last throes of her youth, a moment in which every aspect of her life is going through a crisis. Written with King's trademark humor, sensitivity and intelligence, it is a captivating novel that explores the exhilarating and dizzying leap between the end of one stage and the beginning of another.
