'I loved the creativity, the unpredictability, its dazzling
coverage of so many ideas' Rob Cowan 'Superb . . . An original
character and an original book' David Quantick, Record Collector
Can John Nightly be brought back to life again? John Nightly (b.
1948) finds his dimension in pop music, the art form of his time.
His solo album becomes one of 1970's bestselling records - but
success turns out to have side effects. Supermaxed in LA after a
dazzling career, John renounces his gift, denying music and his
very being, until he is rediscovered in Cornwall thirty years later
by a teenage saviour dude, who persuades him to restore and
complete his quasi-proto-multimedia eco-Mass, the Mink Bungalow
Requiem. This epic novel mixes real and imagined lives in the tale
of a young singer-songwriter, to tell a story about creativity at
the highest level - the level of genius.
