Thank You, Goodnight: A Novel

Description

In Thank You, Goodnight, hailed by Billboard as High Fidelity and About a Boy with a dose of Music Lyrics thrown in, the lead singer of a one-hit wonder 90s band tries for one more swing at the fence.Teddy Tremble is nearing forty and has settled into a comfortable groove, working at a stuffy law firm and living in a downtown apartment with a woman he thinks he might love. Sure, his days arent as exciting as the time he spent as the lead singer of Tremble, the rock band known for its mega-hit It Feels Like a Lie, but that life has long since passed its sell-by date.But when Teddy gets a cryptic call from an old friend, hes catapulted into contemplating the unthinkable: reuniting Tremble for one last shot at rewriting history. Never mind that the band members havent spoken in ten years, that they left the music scene in a blazing cloud of indifference, and that the only fans who seem to miss them reside in an obscure little town in Switzerland.If Teddy manages to snooker his band mates out of their adult lives, can a once immature, self-involved fallen idol find his way back to the top and possibly back to the one who got away? Thank You, Goodnight is debut novelist Andy Abramowitzs hilarious, honest, and unfailingly heartfelt (The Washington Post) story about love, lyrics, and finding ones legacy in the unlikeliest of places.
