"From the bestselling author of "High Fidelity," "About a Boy," and "A Long Way Down comes a highly anticipated new novel. Set in 1960's London, "Funny Girl" is a lively account of the adventures of the intrepid young Sophie Straw as she navigates her transformation from provincial ingénue to television starlet amid a constellation of delightful characters. Insightful and humorous, Nick Hornby's latest does what he does best: endears us to a cast of characters who are funny if flawed, and forces us to examine ourselves in the process."
