Lucy Brazier – The Honesty Box

Lucy Brazier, author of The Honesty Box, talks about midlife and everything it raises through the prism of food. From fighting against the midlife clichés to how her husband’s mental health, her own menopause and the kids leaving home created the perfect storm. Lucy lives on the Dorset Coast and swims in the sea most mornings (and tries not to go on about it!) and believes in the power of wild swimming to build friendships, resilience and courage for everyday living. Lucy is also on a personal campaign to encourage more honesty boxes!

“A truly beautiful, magical book – I urge you to give it to anyone having a midlife wobble, because Lucy is unashamed about showing her vulnerability and what it is to be human, a woman, a wife and a mum in the 21st century. Heart-breaking and heart-warming, but the ultimate message is one of hope: never give up on the one you love.”
Veronica Henry

“Touching, topical and brilliantly woven together, this love story of despair, food and redemption is utterly charming.”
Dame Joanna Lumley
