About this book

A young babysitter moves into a wealthy family's coastal home after her mother arranges a live-in job. The trip takes her past the house her own family has recently left, bringing private troubles into an unfamiliar setting. Lily King's collection of literary short stories opens with this recollection of work, family upheaval and adolescent uncertainty.

About the author

Lily King

Euphoria fictionalises a few months in 1933 when Margaret Mead, her husband and Gregory Bateson were doing fieldwork on the Sepik River, and turns anthropology into a triangle of ambition and attraction. Writers and Lovers is smaller and better: a waitress in Boston, thirty-one, grieving her mother and six years into a novel nobody has asked for.
