This month on The Women’s Podcast book club, we’ve been reading Lucy by the Sea by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Elizabeth Strout.
Set in the early days of the pandemic, it tells the story of Lucy Barton who moves to Maine during lockdown, to live with her ex-husband William in a small house by the sea.
Leaving her life in New York behind, Lucy must now spend the next several months in the company of the man she once loved and their complex past.
“A pandemic love story might put some people off, but it didn’t put me off,” explains book clubber Ann Ingle.
