Nick Cave has announced a new illustrated autobiography, Stranger Than Kindness, will be released in March 2020. The book will combine images with “commentary and meditations” from Cave and writer Darcey Steinke as they ask “what shapes our lives and makes us who we are and celebrates the curiosity and power of the creative spirit,” the publisher says.
The illustrated guide through the Bad Seeds’ frontman’s life will coincide with the Stranger Than Kindness: The Nick Cave Exhibition, taking place at the Royal Danish Library’s Black Diamond venue in Copenhagen between March 23rd and October 3rd.
