Bunny Munro, un vendedor a domicilio de loción, pasa los días ocupándose de las necesidades hidratantes y sexuales de las amas de casa de la costa meridional inglesa. Viéndose a la deriva tras el suicidio de su mujer, sin embargo, Bunny se lía la manta a la cabeza y sale por última vez a la carretera con su hijo de nueve años a cuestas. Mientras el adulto farolea de puerta en puerta despachando su mercancía y tratando de complacer su inagotable apetito, el niño aguarda en el coche conversando con el espectro de su madre y contemplando la progresiva autodemolición de su padre. Acosado por maridos celosos, por su apremiante lascivia, por los reproches de la fallecida esposa y un asesino en serie disfrazado de Satanás, Bunny Munro es un hombre hundido. Lo peor es que va a morir—y Bunny lo presiente. ( )
Nick Cave's new book, like its title character, offers a wild ride and comes to a bad end. Premios
This box set includes: One of 500 numbered, limited editions of The Death of Bunny Munro signed by Nick Cave Seven CDs containing the complete unabridged audio edition of The Death of Bunny Munro, read by Nick Cave and featuring an original soundtrack to the novel composed by Nick Cave and Warren Ellis (running time: 8 hours, 10 minutes) One DVD containing eleven short videos of Nick Cave reading from his novel Set adrift by his wife's suicide and struggling to keep a grip on reality, Bunny Munro does the only thing he can think of: with his young son in tow, he hits the road. To his son, waiting patiently in the car while his father peddles beauty wares and quickies to lonely housewives in the south of England, Bunny is a hero, larger than life. But Bunny himself, haunted by what might be his wife's ghost, seems only dimly aware of his son's existence. When his bizarre trip shades into a final reckoning, when he can no longer be sure what is real and what is not, Bunny finally begins to recognize the love he feels for his son. And he sees that the revenants of his world - decrepit fathers, vengeful ghosts, jealous husbands and horned psychokillers - are lurking in the shadows, waiting to exact their toll. At turns dark and humane, The Death of Bunny Munro is a tender portrait of the relationship between a boy and his father, with all the wit and enigma that fans will recognize as Nick Cave's singular vision.
