The inside story of The Cure 'Beautifully realised' Irish Times
Coming of age in Thatcher's Britain in the late 70s and early 80s
was really tough, especially if you lived in Crawley. But against
the grinding austerity, social unrest and suburban boredom, the
spark of rebellion that was punk set alight three young men who
would become one of the most revered and successful bands of their
generation. The Cure. Cured is a memoir by Lol Tolhurst, one of the
founding imaginary boys, who met Robert Smith when they were five.
Lol threads the genesis of The Cure through his schoolboy years
with Smith, the iconic leader of the group, and the band's most
successful era in the 1980s. He takes us up to the present day, a
riveting forty years since the band's inception. The band's journey
to worldwide success is woven into a story not only of great highs
and lows but also of love, friendship, pain, forgiveness and,
ultimately, redemption on a beach in Hawaii. Cured highlights those
parts of the creative journey that are not normally revealed to
fans, incorporating many first-hand recollections around Lol's
personal odyssey. From suburban London to the Mojave desert, Cured
brings an acute eye for the times to bear on a lifelong friendship,
with tales of addiction and despair along the way. Cured is the
story of a timeless band and a life truly lived.
