“Perfect
Tunes is an intoxicating blend of music, love, and family from one of the
essential writers of the internet generation.” —STEPHANIE DANLER
“Perfect
Tunes is a zippy and profound story of love, loss, heredity, and parenthood. I
gulped it down, as will all mothers, New Yorkers, music fans, and lovers of
quick-moving novels that are both funny and deep. I loved every page.” —EMMA
STRAUB
“Perfect
Tunes is mind-blowing….Full of unspeakable insights, or at least I thought they
were unspeakable, but there they are. Now I want everyone I know to read this
book and talk about it with me.” —ELIF BATUMAN
Have you ever wondered what
your mother was like before she became your mother, and what she gave up in
order to have you?
It’s the early days of the new
millennium, and Laura has arrived in New York City’s East Village in the hopes
of recording her first album. A songwriter with a one-of-a-kind talent, she’s
just beginning to book gigs with her beautiful best friend when she falls hard
for a troubled but magnetic musician whose star is on the rise. Their time
together is stormy and short-lived—but will reverberate for the rest of Laura’s
life.
Fifteen years later, Laura’s
teenage daughter, Marie, is asking questions about her father, questions that
Laura does not want to answer. Laura has built a stable life in Brooklyn that
bears little resemblance to the one she envisioned when she left Ohio all those
years ago, and she’s taken pains to close the door on what was and what might
have been. But neither her best friend, now a famous musician who relies on
Laura’s songwriting skills, nor her depressed and searching daughter will let
her give up on her dreams.
Funny, wise, and tenderhearted,
Perfect Tunes explores the fault lines in our most important relationships, and
asks whether dreams deferred can ever be reclaimed. It is a delightful and
poignant tale of music and motherhood, ambition and compromise—of life, in all
its dissonance and harmony.
