Nick’s Mind

In this world of fast statements and homogenised ideas here at last is the thoughtful response of someone who examines life, death and all the mess in between. I listened with thirst and have finished this book knowing I will listen again. Not immediately, but when the time is right. How refreshing it has been to listen to authenticity and maturity. Very grateful for this book on so many levels. Thank you.

Life changing

A beautiful, life changing book with Nick Cave showing extraordinary vulnerability and insight.

It is absolutely next level compared with many other surface level ‘rock star’ books.

I had the hard cover but the audiobook is a much better way to hear the interplay and discussions unfold.

Worthy listening

A bit of a heavy listen at times but as whole very enjoyable and a great insight.

Beautiful, Poetic, Raw

I rarely leave book reviews, but I just had to get my thoughts out there to the world. I listened to this audiobook over a few days, and I just couldn't stop listening to it. Nick, you have a way of talking, like a poem, so articulate, you make sense of things, of things that make little sense, like religion, life and especially death. Also, Sean as the interviewer is brilliant and calming. This book moved me. Thank you, Nick and Sean, for sharing these intimate conversations with the world!

Brilliant

With the recent bereavement of my own juvenile son, i found this book enormously comforting, intriguing & helpful through my own sad reality. Marvelous flowing questions & direction from Sean, what a pro & such meaningful honest answers from NC.
Im certain to listen to this book again & again.
I feel my sadness has somewhat been lifted by this work.
Thankyou Mr Cave & Mr O'Hagan.

Complete engrossing

I didn’t want to miss a word. The way Nick Cave can bring you along into his thought processing and carefully articulate where he’s at, without making you feel like you have to think like him, is tremendous. I simply cannot recommend this book enough - along with the treasure trove he’s created musically over his lifetime of being an artist.

So wonderful to hear the words

I’m a long term Nick Cave fan, since the Birthday Party days and am always keen to see what he is up to. This was a great book to listen to. Like me and many of his fans I guess, he’s older and wiser but more than that. He feels more authentic and loved his openness to many difficult and normally private topics. So wonderful to hear their voices though sometimes it felt read as we’re not hearing the original phone conversations. I imaging it being difficult to read in book form. I know I will listen to this again!
