Growing up in the north-east, Lucy longed for more. She dreamed of Pete Doherty, poetry, and the opportunities London seemed to offer. She headed to university with her ticket to the promised land – she would be a shinier version of herself, going out every night and having conversations about Judith Butler. But once she got there, Lucy felt that big-city life wasn’t for her. As she struggled for the right words, clothes, and food, she realized that this city wasn’t right for her. Until it was. With an exciting event at her graduation, Lucy found herself on an adventure with no sense of who she was or what she was supposed to do.
