{"product_id":"susie-nick-cave-9780500029855","title":"Susie","description":"\u003cp\u003eAn exquisite visual and lyrical portrait of Susie Cave that unites the creative talents of four icons - celebrated writer and musician Nick Cave, renowned photographer Dominique Issermann, superstar designer Irma Boom and Susie Cave herself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e 'Through the countless words I have written about Susie, in song and prose, my prime concern has been to contain Susie's fleeting nature. Yet, Susie remains as much a mystery to me now as when I first saw her' Nick Cave\n\u003cbr\u003e \n\u003cbr\u003e In the beginning there was Susie and Nick. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Later the twins, Arthur and Earl.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e And along on this journey was Dominique Issermann, capturing the photographs gathered in this powerful book. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Nick Cave's profound devotion to his wife Susie is present in the imagery crafted through his words and lyrics since they met in 1997. Their long-standing friend, photographer Dominique Issermann, has spent years attempting the same task on film, captured here in episodic bursts. The result: a mirror held up to Susie - the ethereal presence - whose form beguiles and evades the lens. There are many characters within and many Susies to record.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e  In her own words, the role Susie feels most true to is that of mother, and this book is an extraordinary testament to its power. It offers a poignant visual account of both the devastating loss of a beloved child and the deep comfort found in the one who remains.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e  With reflections from Nick and Susie throughout, this is a book to cherish: it affirms faith in art, enchantment, beauty and the strength of the human spirit. It is a visual ode to love, to family and to Susie.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nick Cave","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":48602697269491,"sku":"9780500029855","price":69.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0634\/4284\/5939\/files\/susie.jpg?v=1772761183","url":"https:\/\/www.harryhartog.com.au\/products\/susie-nick-cave-9780500029855","provider":"Harry Hartog Bookseller","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
