The Lucky Ones is a 2003 story collection by British author Rachel Cusk.

[1][2] Billed as a novel,[3] it consists of five stories mainly concerned with the subject of family relationships, about five different people who are loosely connected to each other.

Reviewing the book for The Guardian, John Mullan, senior lecturer in English at University College London was positive about the collection, describing the connected stories as using "a technique of passing, sometimes accidental, connection, reminiscent of a Robert Altman film".

[4] Mullan adds, "The desolation is elegantly credible."
