About the Author

Nick Cave was born in Australia in 1957.

As a member of the seminal rock band The Birthday Party, and latterly the front man of The Bad Seeds, Nick Cave has achieved worldwide acclaim for both his songwriting skills and for his charged stage performances.

His film appearances have also been numerous, with appearances in cult classics such as John Hillcoat's Ghosts of the Civil Dead and alongside Brad Pitt in Johnny Suede. The Ass Saw the Angel also quickly achieved cult status on its original publication.

Not for the faint-hearted, some very heavy themes, lots of disturbing things, but my god! Can he write? With this book, Cave proves he has the literal talent in other fields to back up his compelling lyrics. If you are a fan of Cave's music, you will no doubt enjoy this read, and even if you've never listened to this songs, if you like a good, yet dark and disturbing read, go ahead, buy it!
