The Age of Anxiety

A Novel - The Times Bestseller

Coronet

Indisponible
The Age of Anxiety is a great rock novel, but that is one of the less
important things about it. The narrator is a brilliant creation - cultured,
witty and unreliable. The novel captures the craziness of the music business
and displays Pete Townshend's sly sense of humour and sharp ear for dialogue.
First conceived as an opera, The Age of Anxiety deals with mythic and operatic
themes including a maze, divine madness and long-lost children. Hallucinations
and soundscapes haunt this novel, which on one level is an extended meditation
on manic genius and the dark art of creativity.
