Overview'I go in my bedroom and lie on my bed and soon as I set eyes on Nick it's like magic .' (Alison, 14) Starlust is a stunning oral history of pop music fandom in all its glorious, unexpurgated ecstasies and deliriums. Through first-hand accounts collected from interviews, diaries, letters and confessions Fred Vermorel presents an unprecedented, multi-faceted portrait of 1980s-era pop adoration and obsession - from lonely teens love-struck by Nick Heyward, to the androgynous disciples who claim psychic connections with David Bowie, to the housewife-devotees who share 'lashings of Manilust' for Barry Manilow. 'This book, at first glance full of the fantasies of maniacs, is really full of the wonderful dreams of people just like you and me.' - Pete Townshend Full Product DetailsAuthor: Fred VermorelPublisher: Faber & Faber Imprint: Faber & Faber Edition: Main Dimensions: Width: 12.60cm , Height: 1.90cm , Length: 19.80cm Weight: 0.280kg ISBN: 9780571280766ISBN 10: 0571280765 Pages: 252 Publication Date: 21 July 2011 Recommended Age: From 0 to 0 years Audience: General/trade , General Format: Paperback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: Manufactured on demand  We will order this item for you from a manufactured on demand supplier.
