Bad Seed: The Biography of Nick Cave

This book is an enjoyable read. But the writing is a bit stilted, mostly due to the author composing the book largely out of long, often multi-paragraph quotes interspersed with his own descriptions and analysis of of the goings on in in the lives of Cave and his bandmates. The most jarring issue I had with Johnson's writing was the rather frequent insertion of seemingly unrelated anecdotes in the middle of descriptions of otherwise cohesive narratives. That said, I'd definitely recommend this book to fans of Cave's work.
