The Big Midweek Book Reviews

The Big Midweek by Steve Hanley Book Summary

Guardian Book of the Year Rough Trade Book of the Year Reader’s Digest Editor’s Choice Dagsavisen Book of the Year The first insider's account of life inside The Fall, Steve Hanley's story unfolds like a novel; from 1979 when he joined his schoolmates Marc Riley and Craig Scanlon in The Fall, he puts us right in the heart of the action: on stage, on the tour bus, in the recording studio, and up close and personal with an eccentric cast of band mates. These vividly drawn scenes give unprecedented insight into the intense, highly-charged creative atmosphere within The Fall and their relentless work ethic which has won them a dedicated cult following, high-art respectability and a unique place in popular music history. 'One of the more sincere and endearing band biographies available.' – Los Angeles Review of Books 'Whether you are a fan of the band or not, this is a fantastic rock’n’roll memoir. A wonderful reminder of what it once meant to be in a genuinely dangerous and groundbreaking group.' – The Idler 'Genuinely brilliant. Utterly essential for The Fall fan in your life. The book has such a great tone. Genius idea to use present tense throughout, you feel like you’ve been in the Fall 20 years by the end.' – John Niven
