About the Authors
Chloe de Lullington is an author and screenwriter based just outside Manchester, having grown up on the outskirts of pretty much everything else as well – which, as it turns out, makes for the most compelling stories! Drawn to the eccentric and the liminal, she’s good at funny with a side of sad. Cacoethes is her first novel.
