Walking The Dog with Emily Dean

Coco Mellors (Part One)


Listen Later

This week we’re joined by one of our most glamorous guests ever - it’s the fabulous author Coco Mellors… and she met us in Clissold Park straight off the plane from New York!


Coco is the New York Times bestselling author of Cleopatra and Frankenstein and Blue Sisters. She grew up in London and moved to New York as a teenager, where she received her MFA in fiction from New York University. 


Coco tells us about her childhood pugs and hamsters - and what it was like to grow up with a therapist mother and creative director father. We find out where her passion for writing came from - and how she chose to become sober at the age of 26.

Blue Sisters is the moving, funny, story of three sisters dealing with grief and addiction in the wake of the deal of their beloved fourth sister Nicky. It’s out in paperback now - and you can get your copy here!


The Sunday Times Bestseller Cleopatra and Frankenstein is an addictive, humorous, and poignant debut novel about the shock waves caused by a couple’s impulsive marriage. You can get your copy here!
