ⓘ About Catherine Lacey

Catherine Lacey is an American author from the South who made waves with her first novel about a sad woman that leaves her marriage to go find a man she met once at a party. +Biography Catherine Lacey was born in 1985 in Mississippi.

As a child of Mississippi, Catherine grew up in a very intense and radical environment, where opinions on social issues always went to the extreme.
