Read Write [Hand]: A multi-disciplinary Nick Cave reader

â‚¬Å“This is an exceptional anthology, a beautiful piece of art, a serious account of one manâ‚¬s life work and a great example of the possibilities of new media in the 21st Century.â‚¬Â
â‚¬â€œ Dr Nathan Wiseman-Trowse, The University of Northampton

Read Write [Hand]: A multi-disciplinary Nick Cave reader is a provocative new e-collection of illustrated essays, accompanied by illustrative online mixtapes, which interrogates Nick Caveâ‚¬s literary undertones and emphases, false-starts and fixations, achievements and overall credentials. Taking as its starting-point the notion that Caveâ‚¬s work â‚¬â€œ as both songwriter and Writer â‚¬â€œ represents an extraordinarily rich nub of musical-literary intersection, this unique volume considers, amongst other things:

â‚¬â€œ Caveâ‚¬s formative years;
â‚¬â€œ Caveâ‚¬s bible;
â‚¬â€œ the cinematic Cave;
â‚¬â€œ Cave in Berlin;
â‚¬â€œ Cave and the ballad tradition;
â‚¬â€œ the hard-boiled Cave;
â‚¬â€œ Cave and poetic scrutiny;
â‚¬â€œ Caveâ‚¬s video narratives;
â‚¬â€œ Cave as Englishman.

Taking in academia and journalism, polemic and poetry, not to mention photography, stop-motion animation, graphic art and collage, Read Write [Hand] represents an attempt to explore Nick Caveâ‚¬s interdisciplinarity via its own multidisciplinarity. Utilising eBook functionality, as well as Spotify, YouTube and Silkworm Inkâ‚¬s stunning new website, it features essays by Robert Brokenmouth and Prof. Nick Groom, poetry by Roddy Lumsden and John Clegg, cover artwork by Steve Wacksman and a new version of Caveâ‚¬s â‚¬ËœBring It Onâ‚¬ by Cypress Grove & the Signifiers.
