Book Reviews of Bad Seed: The Biography of Nick Cave
Book Review: swallowed deeper into the wonderful world of nick cave
Summary: 5 Stars
I was enthralled at the amount of information and research put into this biography. As with all books, my expectations are moderate in an attempt to not be disappointed with the text, but Bad Seed proved to be an excellent read! I love finding out new and interesting facts or details that in my many years of dedicating my time to the life and music of Nick Cave I have not come across. It keeps me hooked! The information chronicling the early years is fantastic as well. This was by all means a wonderful find for any Nick Cave fan!
Summary of Bad Seed: The Biography of Nick Cave
Nick Cave has repeatedly succeeded in creating idiosyncratic, obsessive lyrical visions which make no concession to prevailing musical fads. His personal life has been equally turbulent and this book tells the full story of his drug addiction. It offers an overview of his career to date, unravelling the motivation of this reluctant icon and exploring his unique appeal. With exclusive interviews with Cave's fellow musicians, friends, and colleagues, Johnston illustrates a life lived in barely controlled chaos and provides a vivid portrait of a maverick artist.
