Lucy married just the sort of man you might expect: a university graduate who runs his own business. Unfortunately he turned out to have serious dependency issues.

Joseph is shaking off the memory of his last date, a girl who ticked all the right boxes and also drove him up the wall.

On an average Saturday morning in a butcher's shop in North London, Lucy and Joseph meet on opposite sides of the counter. She is a teacher and mother of two, with a past she is trying to forget; he is an aspiring DJ with a wide-open future that maybe needs to start becoming more focused. Lucy and Joseph are opposites in almost all ways. Can something life-changing grow from uncommon ground?

Nick Hornby's brilliantly observed, tender and brutally funny new novel gets to the heart of what it means to fall headlong in love with the best possible person - someone who may not be just like you at all.

This is a love story about young man and an older women who had different background. He's black and she's white. This book is very interesting and amazing on how they manage their life together. Beautiful story.

Life After Marriage is a Turmoil

This author speaks about the indefinite changes in a man after marriage. Lucy happens to marry the man that was labelled as every woman's dream choices but after marriage he happens to be a massive turmoil in Lucy's life.
The rest of the book states whether Paul is a suboptimal Husband or not. But actually, let me break the suspense.
He is ACTUALLY a SUBOPTIMAL man.
