Dreamwalker: Abattoir

Sinopsis en la editorial: Han pasado más de cuarenta años desde que los criminales huyeran ante las humeantes pistolas de DreamWalker. Ahora, incluso equipado con el más sofisticado armamento, ¿podrá el nuevo DreamWalker abrirse paso en el mundo del Hampa para vengar a su predecesor?

It's got all the look of "deluxe" written on it, the thick, book-like black cover with an inset photo of frontman Nick Cave doing his flip to wig city dance – Bad Seeds fans don't need much encouragement to rush out and pick up something by St. Nick and his motley crew of bent ministers of melody, and there's good reason. This double-DVD/double-CD package assembled from the Abattoir Blues Tour in 2003 and 2004 is quite a thing.

Reading Slaughter: Abattoir Fictions, Space, and Empathy in Late Modernity examines literary depictions of slaughterhouses from the development of the industrial abattoir in the late nineteenth century to today. The book focuses on how increasing and ongoing isolation and concealment of slaughter from the surrounding society affects readings and depictions of slaughter and abattoirs in literature, and on the degree to which depictions of animals being slaughtered creates an avenue for empathic reactions in the reader or the opportunity for reflections on human-animal relations. Through chapters on abattoir fictions in relation to narrative empathy, anthropomorphism, urban spaces, rural spaces, human identities and horror fiction, Sune Borkfelt contributes to debates in literary animal studies, human-animal studies and beyond.

Abattoir Blues/The Lyre Of Orpheus is a 2-on-1 album project released in 2004 by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds. This was released by Anti- via Mute.
