Win an Autographed Copy of Nick Hornby’s Juliet Naked, See Him at Barnes & Noble Tonight, Plus other B&N October Events

Nick Hornby - Juliet Naked Nick Hornby - An Education

After a brief sojourn into the world of young adult fiction (Slam) and feature film writing (An Education), Nick Hornby has returned to his bread and butter themes (rock’n roll, super fandom and love) with his latest novel, Juliet, Naked. Juliet, Naked will be available in fine stores everywhere starting today (September 29) and Mr. Hornby will be appearing tonight at Barnes & Noble in Union Square where he’ll be reading from and signing copies of his new book. In other Nick Hornby news, he’s also got two more releases coming out in the next couple of days (three if you count the movie and the screenplay as separate releases), his book Not A Star will be released in paperback on October 1, 2009 and the aforementioned screenplay, An Education, will be comes out in paperback on October 6, 2009 and in select theatres on October 16, 2099. But wait, there’s one more thing… I’m giving away an autographed copy of Juliet, Naked to one lucky reader who emails their name and address to contests@bumepershine.com and tells me the name of their favorite Nick Hornby novel. A random winner will be chosen and notified on Wednesday, October 7. View all Nick Hornby‘s upcoming book tour dates over here.
