And the Ass Saw the Angel by Nick Cave
3.0
A wholly imperfect book. It is clear why Nick himself consider this a not so good book: it shows a mix of great languages and narrative scope with tedious parts and forgettable moments.
It is pretty much a book that mirrors, thematically, the first part of Nick Cave career as a musician. It fits that period like a latex glove. And, as per the music, I love some of it while find boring some. Bunny Munro represents the middle part of Nick's career in music and it was much better, more mature as both a writer and an artist as a whole.
I wouldnt say not to read this book as I see how many would absolutely love it. It is not for everybody and surely not the best Nick Cave can do, though.
