FROM HER TO ETERNITY — The fabulous Cathi Unsworth meets obsessive fans of Nick Cave in 1990, discusses Rock For Choice and Fund The Feminist Majority with all-girl punks L7 in 1992 and catches up with the Cramps' Lux & Ivy in 1994.
Encomiums should engender enquiry. High praise should raise our suspicions of cant. However, the title of ‘Queen of London Noir’ has been bestowed deservedly upon the novelist Cathi Unsworth. A former music journalist, now a writer, lecturer and creative writing guide, for her the darkness which underlies human behaviour is a key to the hidden files of the mind, enlightening us about what makes human beings tick. This reissue of a novel, originally published in 2009 and with the addition of an Introduction by noted cultural commentator Greil Marcus, gives us a chance to reacquaint ourselves with one of the major steps leading to her enthronement. Nicky Charlish reviews Cathi Unsworth's Bad Penny Blues.
A new autobiography tells the fabulous story of Jordan, the one-named wonder woman who personified London’s punk scene in the 70s.
