This is the second novel by Nick Cave. The first one '....AND THE ASS SAW THE ANGEL' is one of my all time favourite books. This one is enjoyable but certainly milder and not as dark. It's the story of a pussy obsessed door to door salesman and his nine year old son on the road after the recent suicide of his wife.
Check out the website for samples of the rather epic audiobook read by Nick Cave and featuring a heartbreaking soundtrack.
