Another Dead Soul
A novel by Richard Jobson
Inspired by the tragic deaths of Amy Winehouse and Avicii, Another Dead Soul is a reflection on the corruption of responsibility to an artists vulnerability, where art is a money making tree that is shaken until nothing is left.
Set as a series of dreamlike vignettes, memories overlap and collide as a manager is haunted by his actions.
Living in a parallel universe to the fans who buy the music and attend the shows, his drug-addled personality finds a natural home in a world of private planes, five star hotel suites and Russian billionaires parties.
He deceives, abuses, extorts, and makes people disappear who might get in the way of his vision. At the heart of that vision is him: the deal-maker, the untouchable king of all he surveys. A combination of moral decrepitude and nihilism as a lifestyle, leads him on a downward spiral of paranoia and fear.
