It's 1981, and the nation is going Eurovision-crazy. A young band
Things Fall Apart, are the British hopefuls with their catchy hit,
Let's Be Famous. Despite their energetic performance, Europe is
unimpressed. Null points to the UK.
But the band don't let go of their dream, and they persevere to become
one of the most famous boy-girl pop acts of the eighties. From the
innocent early days to the K-Tel Greatest Hits CD and their last ugly
fight in the Blue Peter Garden - this is their story, warts and all.
Hugely funny and immensely readable, All The Rage is a fantastic
novel encompassing the best (and the worst) of the decade that taste
forgot. Amidst the sequinned boob tubes and spangly jumpsuits is a
touching story about dreams, disappointments, and the highs and lows of
fame.
