The Death of Bunny Munro was Nick Cave's first novel in 20 years following his highly acclaimed debut, And the Ass Saw the Angel (1989). Upon its release, this work from one of the most revered songwriters of his generation was published in 31 countries around the world. It details the tale of a mans bizarre and twisted road to ruin but more than anything, serves as a simultaneously tender, horrific and comic tale of a door-to-door beauty product salesman's road trip with his nine-year-old son.
