I read 'The death of Bunny Munro' a few months ago, which is a tragic modern day tale set in Cave's hometown of Brighton. 'And the ass saw the angel' is a totally different fish. It's one of those books which you read ever so slowly, savouring every sentence. I have the revised version (Cave has made several changes and ammendments to his original novel written over 20years ago). Almost finished...I'll let you know.
