The book explores his life in music, drawing upon his inspirations of the Bible, Greek myth, and literature, as well as his enduring passion for gospel, blues, and progressive rock. Cave's journey from his childhood in Australia to his struggles with drug addiction and his fascination with the nightmare landscapes of America's wild west and the southern gothic has led to a reckoning with his own sense of Christian spirituality. His songwriting has moved from the saints and sinners of the traditional murder ballad to piano-based heartbreak songs, deconstructed garage rock, and ambient fever dreams delivered through minimalist electronica. Adam Steiner dives into the world of a complex songwriter who continues to speak to us of the light and shade of humanity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 644g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 159 x 236 x 26 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781538160350\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Adam Steiner","offers":[{"title":"Unspecified","offer_id":44839475314938,"sku":"9781538160350","price":23.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1701450419580_book.jpg?v=1701586765","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/darker-with-the-dawn-nick-caves-songs-of-love-and-death-9781538160350","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
