Spotted this on Amazon today:
Unknown Pleasures: Inside Joy Division by Peter Hook (Hardcover - 1 Oct 2012) Buy new: £18.99
Available for pre-order Eligible for FREE Super Saver Delivery.
Looks like Hooky's only got just 18 months to write it, plan for the launch, book signing and accompanying tour(?).
Book early!

Reflects a moment in time.
I had no idea Amazon lists products that aren't on sale yet this early... (not a criticism, just observation).

Just wait til the signed limited edition of the book comes out complete with a horse whip signed by the author?

I can't believe after all that googling, Al has finally found a new 'flogging a dead horse' pic, and not only that; it's a classic 19th century moving lithograph.
Bravo. 
The JD overkill started 2007 with Control. If this goes ahead that'll be 5 years of flogging it, longer than the band were in existence!
the Joy division overkill started with control...mmm , not so sure about that, everybody connected with the band is having there say,, at various points in various ways, let him write his book and why not ?anto signed my copy of control at the back,, "at the end"? well yes cos i thought that was realy the end what more could be said,, how wrong can i be.
strain take the strain, these things we love.
That is not all the projects that are lined up for Hooky. He is also going to write a book about New Order (massive project), Revenge (a couple of pages), Monaco (a couple of pages), & Freebass (a leaflet maybe? )
hilarious. here we go again eh.
after a very successful first book, author decides to do another. shocking i know.
jesus. 
To be fair,I think the posters who are having a laugh here are the very people who will buy the book when it comes out,same people who bought his first literary effort. I would be more interested in a book about New Order myself.
