Journalist Paul Morley meets fans and signs copies of his new book at FOPP stores

WHAT: Signing sessions

WHERE: FOPP Earlham Street, Covent Garden, London
FOPP Brown Street, Manchester

WHEN: FOPP London, Friday 7th December at 6pm
FOPP Manchester Wednesday 12th December at 5pm

One of the UK's foremost popcultural commentators, Paul Morley celebrates the release of his new book, ‘Joy Division – Piece By Piece’ with two signing sessions at FOPP stores starting at FOPP’s Covent Garden store in London on Friday 7th December.

Paul will be at the store from 6.00 pm to meet fans and sign copies of the new book.

Next up, Paul visits FOPP’s Brown Street store in Manchester on Wednesday 12th December for another signing session starting at 5.00 pm.

‘Joy Division – Piece By Piece’, is a close personal account spanning as far back as the band’s early incarnation as Manchester punk outfit, Warsaw, to the release of the second Joy Division album 'Closer', after singer Ian Curtis’s tragic suicide in May 1980. The book also examines the legacy of the group, and the development of their reputation and influence in the three decades since their short, turbulent life.

Paul Morley wrote extensively and evocatively of the `mood, atmosphere and ephemeral terror' that enveloped this unique group and their doomed front man, vocalist Ian Curtis. These are his complete writings on Joy Division, both contemporary and deletion made here retrospective.
