Why read it?
1 author picked Sweating Tears with Fat White Family as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I love to see different takes on music biography: shifts away from conventional formats are a happy place for me. Stripe, inspired by the 90s series Star Test (which I was obsessed with too) takes on the notorious Fat White Family, presenting them in all of their demonic rock ‘n’ roll depravity through exclusive interview material. Cradduck’s folklorically inspired illustrations in the Rough Trade edition complement the text with grotesque perfection.
From Zoë's list on music biographies written by women.
