Juliet, Naked - Rilegato

Juliet, Naked is Hornby's best novel to date. (Simon Baker, The Spectator 2009-09-09)

Subtle and insightful, and really quite touching. (Laurence Phelan, The Independent on Sunday 2009-08-30)

Ingenious, funny and moving, but also examines loneliness, self obsession and the dangers of communicating solely through a keyboard. (Wendy Holden, Daily Mail 2009-09-11)

Hornby writes so well that you can almost smell the birdseed odour of badly dried clothes combined with failure that pervades Annie's house; his triumph though is to find infinite amounts of warmth and humour in this seeming world of desolation. (Roger Perkins, Sunday Telegraph magazine 2009-09-13)

It's good to have him back. Nick Hornby's first adult novel in four years is a comic delight. Hornby's writing has an easy, fluent tone, as if he is right inside his characters' heads. (Nick Curtis, Evening Standard 2009-08-27)

In Hornby's fiction, music is never just about music; among contemporary writers, only Jonathan Lethem has his sure sense for the way popular cultural artefacts become entwined, for good or ill, with ordinary relationships; and in particular, how pop songs minister to deep needs while exposing all too many fresh ones.
