Cured

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.

Cured is a memoir by Lol Tolhurst, a founder member of one of the most revered and successful bands of their generation: The Cure. Lol threads the band's genesis through his suburban schoolboy years with Robert Smith, the iconic leader of the group, and their most successful era of the 1980s.
Lol toured the globe many times over, supporting the ground-breaking albums Three Imaginary Boys, Seventeen Seconds, Faith and Pornography, before departing the band in 1989 at the time of their aptly-titled masterwork Disintegration. 2011 saw a momentous reunion tour and Lol performed with his former band mates for the first time in over twenty years.
Cured brings an acute eye for the times to bear on a lifelong friendship, with tales of personal addiction, despair, pain, forgiveness and redemption along the way. It is the story of a timeless band and a life truly lived.
