Description

Twenty years after the publication of his first novel, "And the Ass Saw the Angel," Cave offers a story about the final days of Bunny Munro, a salesman in search of a soul. By turns dark and humane, this work lays bare the imprints that fathers leave on their sons.

Reviews

âPut Cormac McCarthy, Franz Kafka and Benny Hill together in a Brighton seaside guesthouse and they might just come up with Bunny Munro. As it stands, though, this novel emerges emphatically as the work of one of the great cross-genre storytellers of our age: a compulsive read possessing all of Nick Caveâs trademark horror and humanity, often thinly disguised in a galloping, playful romp.â âIrvine Welsh, author of "Trainspotting"

â[Nick Cave] stands as one of the great writers on love of our era.â âWill Self, author of "The Book of Dave"

âNick Cave will obviously live forever, just because the devilâs scared of him. Ever since he stomped out of the junkyard with the Birthday Party, Cave has walked tall in the role of Luciferâs rock-and-roll boyfriend.â âRob Sheffield, "Rolling Stone"
