Dance Prone is at once a wide-ranging re-imagining of an indie rock world and a psychological journey into the chaos of outsider art, youth, and its various languages.
His book is many things. A giddy rush of indie excess, punk mayhem, outsider art, blurred memory, lapsed existence and sudden grace. A mind-bending trip that plays out in that liminal space between innocence and insanity; drift and purpose; rational and rogue; anarchy and calm; between what was lost and what may endure. Cut with a cast of characters sawn through the bone, language that giddies-up the heart, and always, always, alive with a throbbing pulse that insists you read on. Lyrical. Violent. Elegiac. Epic. I adore David Coventry's writing and Dance Prone is a magnificent novel. Alan McMonagle, author of Ithaca.
Coventry, David
David Coventry was born in 1969 in New Zealand, where he lives with his wife, the novelist Laura Southgate. Published in over fifteen counties, Coventry's debut, The Invisible Mile, was hailed in the New York Times as a 'gorgeous . . . philosophical action-adventure', was book of the week in the Sydney Morning Herald. It was described in his home country as 'one of the most gruelling novels about sport ever written', one which 'immediately places David Coventry among the elite of New Zealand authors.' He received his MA in 2010 from the International Institute of Modern Letters at Victoria University of Wellington where he is currently completing a PhD.
