Coco Mellors talks ‘Blue Sisters’ book, addiction and family ties

NEW YORK – Forget Zodiac signs, Coco Mellors wants to know your birth order. 

The “Cleopatra and Frankenstein” author is celebrating her sophomore novel “Blue Sisters” (out now), which chronicles three sisters, “Blue” in both surname and disposition, a year after their fourth sister’s unexpected death. Across London, Paris, Los Angeles and New York City, the sisters come together and pull apart, grappling with what happens when four becomes three. 

Settling into a couch at a Spotify event celebrating audiobook listening, Mellors tells me about layering three very distinct narratives: lawyer Avery, who is 10 years sober at the start of the novel; professional-boxer-turned-bouncer Bonnie and globe-trotting model Lucky. Nicky, whose death leaves the sisters reeling in different ways, was the golden child of the family.
