Our London Lives by Christine Dwyer Hickey
In 1979 London, two Irish outsiders, Milly and Pip, navigate the challenges of life in a sprawling city. Milly, a teenage runaway, and Pip, a young boxer struggling with anger and alcohol, cross paths over the years. Their lives intertwine sporadically, always aware of each other but seldom together. Decades later, Milly holds onto her sense of home, while Pip, a recovering alcoholic, roams the city streets, haunted by past choices. This story explores themes of love, loneliness, and the evolving nature of a city and its inhabitants.
