Críticas:

Very funny and astutely observed * New Statesman * A wonderfully assured writer * Sunday Times * Sharp, funny, touching . . . Nick Hornby's triumph is to find infinite amounts of warmth and humour in this seeming world of desolation * Daily Telegraph * A comic delight. In Juliet, Naked the author once again deftly but affectionately anatomizes the foibles of flawed men and women * Evening Standard * Juliet, Naked is ingenious, funny and moving * Daily Mail *

Reseña del editor:

Juliet, Naked is bestselling author Nick Hornby's moving, funny account of life's second chances

Annie's put fifteen years into safe, slightly obsessive Duncan, and now she's like her money back, please. It's time to move on. But she lives in Gooleness, the north's answer to a question nobody asked. Is she really going to find real, proper, fell-it-deep-down-in-your-boots love on a damp and windy seafront? Or perhaps she should follow her heart and pursue Tucker, the reclusive American rock star, who keeps emailing her his smart advice.

But between Annie and her second chance lie a few obstacles. There's Malcolm, the world's most judgemental therapist, and Barnesy, the north's most extrovert dancer. There's what men and women will do and won't do for love. And, of course, there's Tucker. . .

Hilarious and tender, this bestselling novel will move you in ways both profound and surprising. It's Nick Hornby at his brilliant best. If you like David Nicholls, David Sedaris and Jonathan Coe you will love this book.
