Synopsis "Clio Rising (in English)"
In 1983, Livvie Bliss leaves western North Carolina for New York City, armed with a degree in English and a small cushion of cash from a favorite aunt. Her goal is to launch a career in publishing, but also to live openly as a lesbian. A rough start makes Livvie think she should give up and head home, but then a new friend helps her land a job at a literary agency run by the formidable Bea Winston. Bea hopes Livvies Southern charm and boyish good looks will help her bond with one of the agencys most illustrious clientsthe cranky Modernist writer Clio Hartt, an octogenarian recluse who accomplished just one great novel. When Livvie becomes Clios girl Friday and companion, the plan looks like its working: The two connect around their shared western North Carolina heritage, and their rapport gives Clio support and inspiration to think about publishing again. But something isnt quite right with Clios writing. And as Livvie learns more about Clios romantic relationship with playwright Flora Haynes, uncomfortable parallels emerge between Livvies own circle of friends and the drama-filled world of expatriate artists in Paris in the 1920s. In Clios final days, the writer shares a secret that could upend Livvies lifeand the literary establishment.
