Really good book on Richey Edwards of the Manic Street Preachers who went missing in February 1995 and was declared dead in November 2008. Very sad and at times hard to read because of Richey's utter sadness and hopelessness. The book is fiction but based on interviews with friends and family and an imagining of what could have happened in his last days based on reported sitings of him. I've always loved the Manics anyway, but never really understood Richey's story and influence on the band. Really, really good read. ( ) geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
A story of music, madness and the Manic Street PreachersIn February 1995, Richey Edwards checked out of a London hotel instead of flying to the US with the rest of the Manic Street Preachers. There were a few subsequent sightings but then nothing. His body was never found, and he was declared legally dead in November 2008. Now Richard tells the story of his life - and disappearance - as he might have told it. 'This moving, tender novel tells the story of a lost boy adrift in a world that he can't make sense of' Marie Claire 'Myers deserves credit not only for adding a third dimension to Edwards, but for trying a fourth, for attempting to document a period of his life that seems destined to remain a mystery' The Times 'A sympathetic and sad imagining of the boy who became a reluctant pop idol' Time Out 'Harrowing and hauntingly sad' Mojo Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
