Musician, novelist, poet, actor: Nick Cave is a Renaissance man. His wide-ranging artistic output - always uncompromising, hypnotic and intense - is defined by an extraordinary gift for storytelling. Reinhard Kleist employs a cast of characters drawn from Cave's music and writing to tell the story of a formidable artist and influencer. Capturing everything from Cave's performances in Berlin to the moments he spent with love Anita Lane, Reinhard Kleist's graphic biography, like Cave's songs, is by turns electrifying, sentimental, morbid and comic - but always engrossing.

Reinhard Kleist is an award-winning graphic novelist best known for his graphic biographies Johnny Cash: I See a Darkness, The Boxer, and An Olympic Dream. He lives in Berlin.
