One of the New York Timesā€™ 20 Books to Read in 2020

ā€œA tonic . . . Splendid . . . A respite . . . A summer cocktail of a book.ā€ā€”Washington Post

ā€œUnforgettable . . . Behind her brilliantly witty and uplifting message is a remarkable vulnerability and candor that reminds us that we are not alone in our strugglesā€”and that we can, against all odds, get through them.ā€ā€”Lori Gottlieb, New York Times best-selling author of Maybe You Should Talk to Someone

Part memoir and part joyful romp through the fields of imagination, the story behind a beloved pseudonymous Twitter account reveals how a writer deep in grief rebuilt a life worth living.

Becoming Duchess Goldblatt is two stories: that of the reclusive real-life writer who created a fictional character out of loneliness and thin air, and that of the magical Duchess Goldblatt herself, a bright light in the darkness of social media. Fans around the world are drawn to Her Graceā€™s voice, her wit, her life-affirming love for all humanity, and the fun and friendship of the community thatā€™s sprung up around her.

@DuchessGoldblat (81 year-old literary icon, author of An Axe to Grind) brought people together in her name: in bookstores, museums, concerts, and coffee shops, and along the way, brought real friends homeā€”foremost among them, Lyle Lovett.

ā€œThe only way to be reliably sure that the hero gets the girl at the end of the story is to be both the hero and the girl yourself.ā€ ā€” Duchess Goldblatt
A Memoir on Grief and Healing: Discover the true story of the anonymous author who, paralyzed by loss, created a fictional alter ego to find her way back to life.Finding Friendship Online: Witness the surprising and heartwarming formation of a genuine community, as strangers connect through the wit and wisdom of a character made of thin air.An Unlikely Connection: Follow the remarkable, real-life friendship that blossoms between the fictional Duchess Goldblatt and legendary musician Lyle Lovett.The Power of a Created Self: A candid and vulnerable look at identity, loneliness, and the profound truth that sometimes, the character we create is the person we need to become.
