Faith, Hope and Carnage
by

Insightful, empathetic, moving are just a few words I would use to describe this book. Readers should probably be aware of a little of Nick Cave’s music and career to fully appreciate it, but you don’t have to be a superfan to be moved by this thoughtful exploration of life, love, art and grief. Cave has a lyrical way of speaking that is somehow still quite accessible. He comes across as thoughtful, but also very willing to acknowledge his flaws and weaknesses. The conversation between him and O'Hagan seemed very organic, and few subjects, if any, seemed out of bounds. Absolutely recommended!

How have I never heard of this man? His music? His life and career? Loss, love, grief, life, memory. His music is captivating and this book actually commanded my full attention. So relatable as we all try to make meaning. He has a gift of prose where you “feel” and think he has absolutely captured my experiences of loss and grief, the courage and capacity we have to embrace it and in doing so, truly changes who we are.
