Product Information

" 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 par-enthood. 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 The breakout novel from Emily Gould: a story of music and motherhood, ambition and compromise--of life, in all its dissonance and harmony It's the early days of the new millennium, and Laura has arrived in New York City's East Village with the hopes of recording her first album. A songwriter with a one-of-a-kind talent, she's just beginning to book gigs when she falls hard for Dylan, a troubled but magnetic musician whose star is on the rise. Their time together is stormy and short-lived--Dylan dies a few months into their relationship--but will reverberate for the rest of Laura's life. Flash forward fourteen years: Laura's daughter, Marie, is asking ques-tions about the father she never knew, questions that Laura does not want to answer. Laura has built a quiet life 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 Marie won't let her, and when she attempts to track down Dylan's family, both mother and daughter are forced to confront the heartbreak at the root of their relationship. Funny, wise, and utterly immersive, Perfect Tunes explores the fault lines between parents and children, and asks whether dreams deferred can ever be reclaimed.

" Perfect Tunes is mind-blowing. I have yet to read any text longer than like one page by Emily Gould in which she doesn't articulate something I often thought, or felt, but never previously articulated or acknowledged. She is brilliant and fearless. Her take on mothers and daughters, and daughters' boyfriends, and daughters' boyfriends' mothers, and daughters' daughters boyfriends, is 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 " 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 an intoxicating blend of music, love, and family from one of the essential writers of the internet generation. From the obsessive spark of first love to the complexities of mother-daughter relationships, Emily Gould captures life's ups, downs, and in-betweens with wisdom and wry humor, giving us one of the great New York coming-of-age stories." --Stephanie Danler " Perfect Tunes is mind-blowing.

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 "Sharply observant . . . Gould's portrait of a would-be artist as a young woman offers fresh, poignant insights into the challenges faced by the city's transplanted dreamers." -- Publishers Weekly "Gould's strength lies in her powers of observation, her ability to wrap words around a specific time and a place in the lives of these particular women. . . . Laura's and Marie's voices each stand out for their honesty and poignancy." --BookPage, "[A] poignant story about the hard and intangibly enriching work of motherhood. . . . Anyone familiar with Gould's work will be unsurprised by her keen eye. . . . The pleasure of this book is in Gould's astute details about everything from a hangover (which made Laura's head feel like a "black banana") to relationships. . . . Her writing is observant and unfussy, and she has a knack for addressing serious subjects, such as the hardships of parenting and the darkness of depression, while keeping things light." --Emily Bobrow, The Washington Post "What has remained consistent throughout Gould's career is her ability to understand, amplify, and explore the essence of a moment, in turn offering her readers the opportunity to better understand the exigencies of life, those weird after-effects that ripple out from a major catastrophe. Perfect Tunes has many of those big before-and-after moments and many of those rippling after-effects; it shows the ways in which we are all, always, having to reimagine the story of our lives. . . . Through it all, Gould's insights into what makes up the sometimes barely perceptible beats of our lives are sensitive and spot-on." --Kristin Iversen, Refinery29 " Perfect Tunes is a cautionary tale about a lesser-discussed form of intergenerational trauma. . . . Gould, in the end, is not suggesting that oft-told myth that motherhood makes artistic life impossible; she is showing, through Laura and Marie's relationship, how unexpressed creativity can become as painful to carry as unpumped breast milk." --Lindsay Zoladz, Bookforum " Perfect Tunes is an intoxicating blend of music, love, and family from one of the essential writers of the internet generation. From the obsessive spark of first love to the complexities of mother-daughter relationships, Emily Gould captures life's ups, downs, and in-betweens with wisdom and wry humor, giving us one of the great New York coming-of-age stories." --Stephanie Danler " Perfect Tunes is mind-blowing.

Laura's and Marie's voices each stand out for their honesty and poignancy." --BookPage, PRAISE FOR FRIENDSHIP : "A wry, sharply observed coming-of-age- story for the post-recession era." -- People "A vivid exploration of the missed connections and overwhelming isolation of modern urban life ... Compulsively readable." -- The Los Angeles Times "The novel form . . . accentuates Ms. Gould's strengths as a writer. . . . It points to Ms. Gould's abilities as a keen-eyed noticer and her knack for nailing down her ravenous observations with energy and flair." --Michiko Kakutani , The New York Times "A very fine first novel . . . Most of us know honesty as a virtue, and fewer know it as a sneaky concept in the craft of fiction. The latter honesty is about eschewing cliché, mastering particular skills for making the reader feel confided in. The novel, or publishing itself, might be in jeopardy, but writing will live as long as there remains the distinct pleasure of being told an honest thing. It's a little frightening, though; once transmuted into a literary principle, honesty becomes a talent of which almost none of us is truly capable . . . I submit that something like the following is unlikely and true: Emily Gould is one of the honest ones." -- The Rumpus "Two young women try to create the glamorous lives they've imagined for themselves while talking on Gchat from their desks at their less-than-ideal jobs. . . . Plot takes a back seat to Gould's razor-sharp humor and observations about life in New York among a class of young people who know more about how they'd like to live than how to pay for it. It's also a delight to read a novel that places female friendship at its center; we watch Bev and Amy manage their fluctuating feelings of love, jealousy and sometimes disdain for each other. . . . Gould brilliantly charts their ups and downs." -- Kirkus (starred review) "Gould's novel is admirably, readably realistic--she knows these girls and the world they live in (including the omnipresence of technology and the way that it pervades relationships) . . . Gould nails the complex blend of love, loyalty, and resentment that binds female friends. It is worth reading for the richness of its details . . . and it offers new insight into the experience of young women." -- Publishers Weekly, " Perfect Tunes is an intoxicating blend of music, love, and family from one of the essential writers of the internet generation. From the obsessive spark of first love to the complexities of mother-daughter relationships, Emily Gould captures life's ups, downs, and in-betweens with wisdom and wry humor, giving us one of the great New York coming-of-age stories." --Stephanie Danler " Perfect Tunes is mind-blowing.
