Nick Cave Announces New Memoir

Singer, songwriter, novelist and poet Nick Cave has announced a new memoir called Faith, Love and Courage. It will focus on the years following his sons sudden death in 2015, and is based on 40 hours of interviews with journalist Sean O’Hagan, a long time friend. 
 On the interviews, Cave said “This is the first interview I’ve given in years. It’s over 40 hours long. That should do me for the duration, I think. (It's been) a strange, anchoring pleasure to talk to Sean O’Hagan through these uncertain times.”
 Offering further detail, O'Hagan said the memoir comprises “intimate and often surprising conversations in which Nick Cave talks honestly about his life, his music and the dramatic transformation of both, wrought by personal tragedy. Arranged around a series of themes—including songwriting, grief, creativity, collaboration, catastrophe, defiance and mortality—it provides deep insight into the singular mind of one of the most original and challenging artists of our time, as well as exploring the complex dynamic between faith and doubt that underpins his work.”
 Faith, Love and Courage will arrive in autumn, 2022.
