Following her mother's untimely death, she was raised by her indomitable aunt and classicist father, with an implied sense of duty. Her only deviation from a prescribed path was an abortive love affair years before.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHowever, it is 1983, and change is in the air, encompassing social, political, and personal aspects. When her elderly father passes away, Lily is conflicted by a sense of freedom that she feels ill-equipped to embrace after a lifetime of compliance. Meeting by chance a mercurial young woman named Stella Fox and a middle-aged failing actor named Hugh Murray, she is drawn to them by the prospect of filling a void in her life that she fears. She develops maternal feelings for Stella and craves a relationship with Hugh that will elevate her status, challenging her sense of insignificance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs the year progresses, doubts about Stella and Hugh's integrity begin to surface, and Lily, amidst a changing world, must shake off the hooks of the past and the snares of the present to define her own future.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 216 x 138 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781805141709\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jude Hayland","offers":[{"title":"Unspecified","offer_id":44839438483706,"sku":"9781805141709","price":7.31,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1701451452267_book.jpg?v=1701586350","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/the-odyssey-of-lily-page-9781805141709","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
