A brilliant novel about a woman determined to make a name for herself
as a sitcom star in 1960's London from the bestselling author of
Dickens and Prince, High Fidelity and About a Boy
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, Funny Girl does what Nick Hornby does best:
endears us to a cast of characters who are funny if flawed, and forces
us to examine ourselves in the process.
