Sophie, Standing There by Meg Mason
An achingly tender, bittersweet novel exploring loneliness, parasocial obsession, and the power of finding connection in unexpected places.
From the bestselling author of Sorrow and Bliss, Meg Mason delivers a brilliantly witty and moving story following Sophie, a sound technician reeling from a painful marriage breakdown. Finding solace in the books, podcasts, and words of a famous author, Sophie’s quiet comfort turns into a deep infatuation. But when a last-minute scheduling twist brings the writer to her literary festival, the collision between fantasy and reality threatens to change her world forever.
