WARREN ELLIS Nina Simone's Gum (2021 UK 208-page hardback book - On Thursday 1st July 1999, Dr Nina Simone gave a rare performance as part of Nick Cave's Meltdown Festival. After the show, in a state of awe, Warren Ellis crept onto the stage,took Dr Simone's piece of chewed gum from the piano, wrapped it in her stage towel and put it in a Tower Records bag. The gum remained with him for twenty years; a sacred totem, his creative muse, a conduit that would eventually take Ellis back tohis childhood and his relationship with found objects, growing in significance with every passing year. 'Nina Simone's Gum' is about how something so small can form beautiful connections between people. It is a story about the meaning we place on things, on experiences, and how they become imbued with spirituality. It is a celebration of artistic process, friendship, understanding and love. Complete with a title-embossed outer dust jacket and a foreword by Nick Cave, the hardback book remains in wonderful 'as new' condition)
