More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
Already immortalised in the 2002 film 24 Hour Party People, the loving yet volatile relationship between the infamous impresario Tony Wilson and his first wife, Lindsay Reade, sits at the heart of the vast cultural changes that took place within Manchester and its evolving music scene during the past three decades. Writing with searing honesty, Reade unveils a classic tale of sex, drugs and rock n roll and also of love, passion, friction, failure and deceit. Mr Manchester and the Factory Girl is the story of a legend, delivered from the inside and unique to the author.

Essential reading, not just for Factory fans, but anyone who with a curiosity to understand what it's like to be at the very origin of an art movement - a rare thing that happens just a few occasions every lifetime. I thought I knew this story until I read Lindsay Reade's book.... Fascinating, amusing, stark and.... just like the whole Manchester music thing... a little bit bonkers. Wonderful.
