About this ebook

An intimate and moving tale about the contemporary choices of a thirtysomething woman. Lucy has just turned 30 and is single. Surrounded by a circle of married friends or ones starting families, she feels alone and hopeless. Determined to find "Mr. Right," Lucy begins evaluating different suitors to various degrees of success and absurdity. Creators Catel ("Kiki de Montparnasse") and Veronique Grisseaux paint a touching, humoristic, and realistic picture of what it is to be a young, independent...and sometimes lost...woman in today’s modern world.
