An Evening with Coco Mellors, Author of 'Cleopatra and Frankenstein'

Is there anybody who didn't adore 'Cleopatra and Frankenstein'?
Beloved by our booksellers and readers alike, Coco Mellors' debut - a Sunday Times bestseller, no less - took the book world by storm upon publication in early 2022. Only two years later, Coco returns, true to form, with her stunning second novel, Blue Sisters.
It is a supreme joy that Coco will be celebrating publication with us here in Edinburgh for her first ever Scottish event! We couldn't be more excited to introduce Coco to the readers of Edinburgh at the beautiful Ps and Gs Church. Fingers crossed you'll join us for what will be a very special evening for all.
Blue Sisters
The Blue sisters have always been exceptional - and exceptionally different.
Avery, a strait-laced lawyer living in London, is the typical eldest daughter, though she's hiding a secret that could undo her perfect life forever.
Bonnie was a boxer but, following a devastating defeat, she's been working as a bouncer in LA, until one reckless night threatens to drive her out of the city.
And Lucky, the rebellious youngest, is a model in Paris whose hard-partying ways are finally catching up with her.
Then there was Nicky, the beloved fourth sister, whose unexpected death left Avery, Bonnie and Lucky reeling. When, a year later, the three of them must reunite in New York to stop the sale of their childhood home, they find that it's only by returning to each other that they can navigate their grief, addiction and heartbreak-and learn to fall in love with life again.
