Annie lives in a dull town on England's bleak east coast and is in a relationship with Duncan which mirrors the place. Tucker was once a brilliant songwriter and performer, who's gone into seclusion in rural America - or at least that's what his fans think.
What happens when a washed-up musician looks for another chance? And miles away, a restless woman looks for a change?
NICK HORNBY'S HILARIOUS INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER IS NOW A MAJOR FILM
'A comic delight' Evening Standard
_____________
In 1986, legendary musician Tucker Crowe disappeared from the public eye and for 20 years, his rabid fans have speculated his whereabouts.
Annie lives in Gooleness, the north's answer to a question nobody asked, and has put fifteen years into a safe relationship with one such "Crowe-ologist", Duncan. And she wants her money back, please.
Then Tucker releases new material. Duncan thinks it's genius, Annie does not, and when she dares to go public with her dislike, there are unexpected, life-changing consequences for all three . . .
Juliet, Naked is a humblingly humorous novel about music, love, loneliness, and the struggle to live up to our own potential. If you like David Nicholls, David Sedaris and Jonathan Coe, you will love this book.
