Great-granddaughter of Sigmund, daughter to British painter Lucien, and brought up by strong women, Esther Freud's new novel is about sisterhood.
Set in the 1970s, My Sister and Other Lovers follows Lucy, her mother and sister as they navigate a nomadic and unconventional upbringing.
Known for the autobiographical Hideous Kinky, which was adapted into a movie starring Kate Winslet, My Sister and other Lovers is Freud's tenth novel. She was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature in 2019.
