Et tilfældigt, halvberuset møde nytårsaften ender med at ændre Cleo og Frank på måder, ingen af dem nogensinde havde forestillet sig. Cleo er en ung kunstnerspire, der bor i New York og er til en ny fest hver aften, men hun kender nærmest ingen mennesker. Hun bliver snart smidt hjem til England, og hun har ikke engang råd til cigaretter. Indtil hun møder Frank. Han er tyve år ældre end hende og lever det succesrige luksusliv, Cleo savner. Han kan give hende lykke, økonomisk frihed og permanent opholdstilladelse. Hun kan give ham skønhed og forhåbentlig en grund til at stoppe med at drikke så meget. Cleo og Frank indleder en hæsblæsende kærlighedsaffære, der slår dem begge omkuld og berører alle omkring dem: Cleos vilde bedsteven, der ikke helt vil give slip på hende, Franks søster, der må sugardate for at betale regningerne, og Cleo og Franks lille kæleegern, Jesus. COCO MELLORS er født i London, men har siden teenagealderen boet i USA. CLEOPATRA OG FRANKENSTEIN er Coco Mellors debut­roman og udkom til strålende anmeldelser.

Three estranged siblings return to their family home in New York after their beloved sister’s death in this unforgettable story of grief, hope, and the complexities of family, from the acclaimed author of Cleopatra and Frankenstein.The three Blue sisters are exceptional—and exceptionally different. Avery, the eldest and a recovering heroin addict turned strait-laced lawyer, lives with her wife in London; Bonnie, a former boxer, works as a bouncer in Los Angeles following a devastating defeat; and Lucky, the youngest, models in Paris while trying to outrun her hard-partying ways. They also had a fourth sister, Nicky, whose unexpected death left the family reeling. A year later, as they each navigate grief, addiction, and ambition, they find they must return to New York to stop the sale of the apartment they were raised in.But coming home is never as easy as it seems. As the sisters reckon with the disappointments of their childhood and the loss of the only person who held them together, they realize that the greatest secrets they’ve been keeping might not have been from one another but from themselves.Imbued with Coco Mellors’s signature combination of humor and heart, Blue Sisters is a story of what it takes to keep living after loss—and, ultimately, to fall in love with life again.
