Nat Tate

In 1998, William Boyd published a biography about someone known as Nat Tate. The Scottish writer detailed the artist’s life, everything from his struggles to his artworks to his death. During the book launch, a lot of celebrities were seen at the party that David Bowie hosted. The big reveal shocked everyone. They found out that the book was just an April Fool’s prank and a great one at that. Who would have thought that it was nothing more than an epic joke?
