Faith, Hope and Carnage
Harry Hartog's review
Nick Cave's latest book is his most personal - touching on art, religion and how he uses his music to come to term with his grief. The book was written during lockdown with close to 40 intimate hours of conversations with writer Sean O'Hagan. A must read for any Nick Cave fan.
Description
A meditation on faith, art, music, grief and much more - from cultural icon and bestselling author Nick Cave
Faith, Hope and Carnage is a book about Nick Cave's inner life.
Created from more than forty hours of intimate conversations with the journalist Sean O'Hagan, this is a profoundly thoughtful exploration, in Cave's own words, of what really drives his life and creativity.
The book examines questions of belief, art, music, freedom, grief and love. It draws candidly on Cave's life, from his early childhood to the present day, his loves, his work ethic and his dramatic transformation in recent years.
Faith, Hope and Carnage offers ladders of hope and inspiration from a true visionary.
