"One of the world's most celebrated artists, Nick Cave has enthralled and intrigued fans for more than four decades. With Stranger Than Kindness he reveals his innermost creative process as never before. Vibrant, evocative, and startlingly intimate, this remarkable volume peels back the layers of a unique artist, illuminating the inspiration that drives his work and exploring his many universes, both real and imagined. Featuring full color reproductions of original artwork, handwritten lyrics, photographs, and collected personal artifacts, Stranger Than Kindness ponders the origins of our deepest influences--what shapes our lives and makes us who we are--and celebrates the curiosity and power of the creative spirit."--Amazon.com.

Incredibly illuminating images at times, but often blank pages or a wallet.
Severely lacking in the quality of essay that one would expect to find as the centerpiece of such a pricey printed work.
This is at best a companion to the Nick Cave discography and docudrama trilogy.
Also one cant go without saying that this is not even really a book about Nick Cave. This is a book about the inspiration spawned by the nurturing love and companionship given by two incredibly gifted women that happen to take the perspective of the back pocket of their more famous friend.
I love Nick Cave but timing and presentation and cost leave more questions than answers with this piece. ( )
