Originally written in Danish in 1980, Pink Moon was the first
biography of Nick Drake, and remains the only one to include
exclusive interviews with the singer's parents, Rodney and Molly
Drake. In this new, significantly updated edition, available in
English for the first time, author and poet Gorm Henrik Rasmussen
reveals more from his visits to the Drakes in their home Far Leys -
the first, just five years after the death of their troubled son.
Rasmussen includes new interviews with Nick's friends and
collaborators plus extracts taken from his eight-year
correspondence with the Drakes, and from telephone conversations he
had with Rodney every month over four years. Full of intimate
detail about the last three years of Nick's life spent at his
childhood home, Pink Moon - A Story about Nick Drake is a personal,
original, and moving retelling of the life, death, and posthumous
rise of a poet and guitarist who was strangely unsuited for his own
time, and is more popular now than he ever was in life. -- .
