About this listen
The Lucky Ones is a profound evocation of family and the magnetic bonds that can attract or repel. The five people whose lives converge here are also haunted by family: the longing for love, the struggle to connect. Here, a young pregnant mother wrestles with an utterly changed life; a new father sifts for a sign of the man he used to be; a daughter searches for a lost childhood; and a mother reaches out in bewilderment to a child who is growing away from her.
"A small masterwork, a bright gem that illuminates the extent of Rachel Cusk’s considerable abilities.” — Salon
“So sharply written I forgot where I was as I was reading it . . . touches greatness in its psychological incisiveness . . . . Cusk has brought her writing to a new level.” —New York Times Book Review
Demonstrating a rare gift for illuminating “the bustling concourses of life” without sacrificing emotional depth and complexity, this rare and stunning novel confirms Rachel Cusk’s place among our most incisive and masterful writers.
