Making News

By Tony Wilson
'Making News should come with a warning that it shouldn't be read on public transport... unless you are happy for people to stare at you like a crazy person while you snort with laughter. I could not have loved it more. Without doubt my favourite Australian novel of the year.'- Wil Anderson

Tabloids are fun until your dad becomes the story... Lucas Dekker is celebrity offspring, twice over. His Australian father, Charlie, has recently retired from a stellar football career in the Premier League. His English mother, Monica, is a self-help guru, who has sold millions of books with her pro-family message. But when Charlie's involvement in a bizarre sex scandal hits the papers, the Dekkers' own family dynamic will never be the same again. Making News is a darkly hilarious story about celebrity culture and the contentious phone-hacking lows Fleet Street media uses to produce a tabloid that everyone loves to read.
