Juliet, Naked: a novel

From the beloved New York Timesâ€“ bestselling author, a quintessential Nick Hornby tale of music, superfandom, and the truths and lies we tell ourselves about life and love.

Annie loves Duncanâ€”or thinks she does. Duncan loves Annie, but then, all of a sudden, he doesnâ€™t. Duncan really loves Tucker Crowe, a reclusive Dylanish singer-songwriter who stopped making music ten years ago. Annie stops loving Duncan, and starts getting her own life.

In doing so, she initiates an e-mail correspondence with Tucker, and a connection is forged between two lonely people who are looking for more out of what theyâ€™ve got. Tuckerâ€™s been languishing (and heâ€™s unnervingly aware of it), living in rural Pennsylvania with what he sees as his one hope for redemption amid a life of emotional and artistic ruinâ€”his young son, Jackson. But then thereâ€™s also the new material heâ€™s about to release to the world: an acoustic, stripped-down version of his greatest album, Julietâ€”entitled, Juliet, Naked.

What happens when a washed-up musician looks for another chance? And miles away, a restless, childless woman looks for a change? Juliet, Naked is a powerfully engrossing, humblingly humorous novel about music, love, loneliness, and the struggle to live up to oneâ€™s promise.
