THE MANUSCRIPT

LUCY BLOOM introduced by LESLEY VAN STAVEREN

Lucy Bloom was born in Africa. She is an international keynote speaker and consulting CEO with a background in advertising and international aid. She has three teenage children and is the author of two other books: a childbirth guide for men and her memoir, Get the Girls Out. This is her debut novel.

Join Lucy Bloom as she presents her cracker of a debut novel based on her own experience that explores the sometimes-disposable nature of modern relationships, divorce and online dating.

About The Manuscript: When author Edith Scott switches genre to write a book about war and men, she bites off more than she can chew. After learning some seriously hard lessons from men in her life who treated her poorly, Edith decides to write them into the plot. One by one she kills them off with delight. But Edith will never know that real life is dealing with them in a parallel reality too brutal for words. Set in Sydney, Paris, London, Berlin, and Kinshasa in the Congo, The Manuscript is Lucy Bloom’s debut novel and has all the Aussie context and whiplash humour of the acclaimed television show Rake combined with the style and unexpected violence of Killing Eve. It is a novel about the delicate nature of relationships, the ruthlessness of karma, and the blurry line between truth and fiction.
