About this ebook
At the end of yet another unproductive job interview, Lulu, on a whim, takes off for the shore just to get away from it all. She's got a husband and kids left bewildered but it's nothing against them. This is just her time, getting away from the grind and with no other plan than savoring it. Surprised at her own temerity, she meets other people on the edge of the world. It wasn't meant to be for long. It wasn't meant to be anything but in the end thrilling, fun, and possibly dangerous, this improvised experience will make of Lulu a different woman.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Lulu Anew by Etienne Davodeau might seem to have a talk show-type storyline: a married mother leaves her husband and three kids behind to have adventures and find herself. But it's not, and the way the story is delivered is unlike any I've seen. Lulu is middle-aged and not a beauty (except inside). When she has eye-opening sex, her kindred spirit counterpart is no George Clooney. Who she meets along the way, what happens, and how she handles where she ends up, are all unexpected. I'll be looking for more by this author.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Just what happened to Lulu after she ran away from her alcoholic husband and three children? Finding little success in trying to re-enter the job market after 16 years as a home maker, Lulu is possessed by a sudden urge to escape her joyless life. As family friends gather at the house and try to piece together an account of her time on the run, we are kept in deep suspense. How has her adventure concluded? Is Lulu alive?
