Have you ever wondered what your mother was like before she became your mother, and what she gave up in order to have you?<\/strong><\/p>\n

It\u2019s the early days of the new millennium, and Laura has arrived in New York City\u2019s East Village in the hopes of recording her first album. A songwriter with a one-of-a-kind talent, she\u2019s just beginning to book gigs with her beautiful best friend when she falls hard for a troubled but magnetic musician whose star is on the rise. Their time together is stormy and short-lived\u2014but will reverberate for the rest of Laura\u2019s life.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Fifteen years later, Laura\u2019s teenage daughter, Marie, is asking questions about her father, questions that Laura does not want to answer. Laura has built a stable life in Brooklyn that bears little resemblance to the one she envisioned when she left Ohio all those years ago, and she\u2019s taken pains to close the door on what was and what might have been. But neither her best friend, now a famous musician who relies on Laura\u2019s songwriting skills, nor her depressed and searching daughter will let her give up on her dreams.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Funny, wise, and tenderhearted, Perfect Tunes explores the fault lines in our most important relationships, and asks whether dreams deferred can ever be reclaimed. It is a delightful and poignant tale of music and motherhood, ambition and com\u00adpromise\u2014of life, in all its dissonance and harmony.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
