Brighton Jesus Christ Kinski

At Resident Music in Brighton, visitors will encounter a thought-provoking novel that reimagines Klaus Kinski's 1971 monologue on Jesus Christ, a performance that sparked hostility and chaos in Berlin. • The novel, Jesus Christ Kinski, is a daring act of literary ventriloquism that meditates on censorship, creativity, loneliness, and the complexities of artistic expression. • Through the story, readers will gain insight into the life and work of Klaus Kinski, a German actor known for his collaborations with director Werner Herzog and his reputation for volatile behaviour. • The event is a chance to explore the work of award-winning author Benjamin Myers, whose novels have been translated into thirteen languages and have garnered critical acclaim for their innovative style and form.
