review: the haçienda by peter hook

Although the subtitle is How Not to Run a Club, The Haçienda is primarily Peter Hook bragging about how great his bands were and how great the club was too. Much of the narcissistic musings are cringe-worthy as he hurls insults at other bands and just about everyone else he had contact with in the 1980s. The writing does little to make the memoir better either as Hook rambles in a convoluted way to tell his tale of a club he believes should be celebrated.
