Child Star

AuthorMatt Thorne
Rating
Price240

Imagine if the most embarrassing moments of your adolescence had been filmed - and then shown to your parents. Imagine if your first love was a character in a real-life docu-drama - and your romance played out on-screen. Imagine if you were about to become famous - and you had to share it all with your psychopathic sister. This all happened to Gerald Wedmore, child celebrity, recording angel and now TEFL teacher with a load of loony flatmates. As an adult he's no longer a star and he's been sleepwalking through life for too long, trapped in the lost hopes of the past. Now it is time to grow up, find a girl, change his sheets and do something about his life. CHILD STAR is a novel about love, friendship, different types of fame, and the family. Matt returns to stunning form with a page-turning novel in the vein of EIGHT MINUTES IDLE. MattÂ¿s absurdist quirky humour is brought to the fore (plenty of laugh-out-loud gags) and he uses pop music (of the 80s and later, Indie) brilliantly as a sound-track to events.
