“영화관 버터팝콘처럼 계속 들이마시게 되는 소설” _[워싱턴 포스트]
미국 록 음악 팬들에겐 풀리지 않는 불가사의가 하나 있다. 1970년대 시대의 아이콘이자 빌보드 차트 1위를 휩쓸며 인기를 누리던 록밴드 ‘데이지 존스 앤 더 식스’는 왜 정상의 자리에서 아무런 예고도 없이 돌연 해체를 발표했을까? 그 이유에 대해서는 아직까지 밝혀진 바가 없으며, 오히려 그 미스터리야말로 그들에게 전설적인 아우라를 부여해왔다. 그리고 수십 년이 지난 지금, 전설적 밴드의 해체 뒤에 숨겨진 진실이 이 책에서 밝혀진다.
THE SUNDAY TIMES AND NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER'I do not want this book to end. Each time I open it I get lost in another world.' FEARNE COTTON'I LOVE it . .
. I can't remember the last time I read a book that was so fun' DOLLY ALDERTON_________________They were the new icons of rock and roll, fated to burn bright and not fade away. But on 12 July 1979, it all came crashing down.
There was Daisy, rock and roll force of nature, brilliant songwriter and unapologetic drug addict, the half-feral child who rose to superstardom. There was Camila, the frontman's wife, too strong-willed to let the band implode - and all too aware of the electric connection between her husband and Daisy. There was Karen, ice-cool keyboardist, a ferociously independent woman in a world that wasn't ready for her.
And there were the men surrounding them: the feuding, egotistical Dunne brothers, the angry guitarist chafing on the sidelines, the drummer binge-drinking on his boat, the bassist trying to start a family amid a hedonistic world tour. They were creative minds striking sparks from each other, ready to go up in flames. It's never just about the music...
