Nick Cave’s new novel The Death of Bunny Munro has arrived at Polyester

Polyester books Melbourne announces the arrival of Nick Cave’s new novel The Death of Bunny Munro 20 years since his debut novel, And the Ass Saw the Angel, which sold more than 100,000 copies. The Death of Bunny Monro is a black, comic, raw, contemporary horror story set Brighton seaside guesthouse. Bunny Munro sells beauty products and the scent of adventure to the lonely housewives of England’s south coast. Set adrift by his wife’s death he hits the road one last time—with his young son in tow.

As Bunny swaggers from door-to-door hawking his wares and feeding his libido, nine-year-old Bunny Junior waits in the car seeking the comfort of his mother’s ghost and watching his father self-destruct.

Haunted by his appetites, jealous husbands and a serial killer in a devil suit, Bunny Munro is a desperate man.

And he’s going to die.

Stylish, angry and engrossing, The Death of Bunny Munro is at once blackly comic, raw with heartache and bursting with Nick Cave’s hallmark wit and lyricism.

Polyester Books has a totally rare photo of Nick Cave for the first 10 purchasers of The Death of Bunny Monro. Photographed by the elusive Debbie Nettleingham in the 90’s in front of paintings of Keith Richards and Dennis Hopper this is a genuine collectors item. Also with the first 100 sales of The Death of Bunny Monro we are giving a totally cool exclusive Nick Cave badge and also a poster for The Death of Bunny Monro. Get in quick before you miss out.
