The first book for adults by award-winning actor and writer Mackenzie Crook - a moving, beautifully illustrated imagined visit from iconic singer-songwriter Nick Drake, and a quietly powerful expression of love, gratitude and appreciation.

What if you had the chance to tell your hero just how much they meant to you?

If Nick Drake came to my house

and knocked upon the door

I'm sure I'd be more happy

than I've ever been before...

In If Nick Drake Came to My House, Mackenzie Crook - the creator of Detectorists and Worzel Gummidge - explores the power of art to impact our lives, expressed through an imaginary visit from the late, great singer-songwriter. A tender homage to a classic book by Joan Gale Thomas, Crook's first book for adults is infused with his characteristic warm humour, both in the story and his beautiful illustrations. It's a book for anyone who has ever wished they had the chance to tell their hero how much they meant to them.
