Uncorrected Proof paperback of THE DEATH OF BUNNY MUNRO by Nick Cave, published by Canongate Books Ltd, Edinburgh, in 2009.
The book is in very good condition with only minor wear (light rubbing to a couple of corners). Internally, the pages are clean and tight with no tears and no inscriptions.
The lead singer of The Birthday Party, The Bad Seeds and Grinderman, Cave has been performing music for more than 30 years. He has collaborated with Kylie Minogue, PJ Harvey and many others. As well as working with Warren Ellis on the soundtrack for the film of The Road by Carmac McCarthy and The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford, he also wrote the screenplay for the film The Proposition.
His debut novel, And the Ass Saw the Angel, was published in 1989 and his second novel The Death of Bunny Munro was published by Canongate in 2009. Born in Australia, Cave now lives in Brighton.
"Bunny Munro sells beauty products and the dream of hope to the lonely housewives of the south coast. Set adrift by his wife's sudden death and struggling to keep a grip on reality, he does the only thing he can think of: with his young son in tow, he hits the road.
While Bunny plies his trade and his sexual charisma door-to-door, nine-year-old Bunny Junior sits patiently in the car exploring the world through the pages of his encyclopaedia.
As their bizarre and increasingly frenzied road trip shears into a final reckoning, Bunny finds that the revenants of his world - decrepit fathers, vengeful ghosts, jealous husbands and horned psycho-killers - have emerged from the shadows and are seeking to exact their toll.
A tender portrait of the relationship between a father and a son, The Death of Bunny Munro is a stylish, furious and hugely enjoyable read, bursting with the wit and mystery that fans will recognise as hallmarks of Cave's singular vision"
'Put Cormac McCarthy, Franz Kafka and Benny Hill together in a Brighton seaside guesthouse and they might just come up with The Death of Bunny Munro. A compulsive read possessing all Nick Cave's trademark horror and humanity.', IRVINE WELSH
'Cocksman, Salesman, Deadman; Bunny Munro might not be Everyman, but every man ought to read this book. And read it half in stitches, half in tears.', DAVID PEACE
'Nick Cave will obviously live forever, just because the Devil's scared of him.', Rolling Stone
'Cave stands as one of the great writers on love of our era.', WILL SELF
'The Death of Bunny Munrois not just a wonderful read, it's also a heartbreaking one. Cave writes novels like he does lyrics, with strokes of blood and sulphur and lightning. He strikes at the mind and heart and is able to bring his readers to their knees.', Neil LaBute
278 pages.
