Description

Ein meisterhafter Roman über Pink Floyd, eine der einflussreichsten Rockgruppen der Welt Syd Barrett – ein Engel, ein Dämon, ein Poet – war das Genie, das die Gruppe Pink Floyd so stark prägte, dass er heute noch als ihr Geist gilt. Er ging mit Roger Waters in Cambridge zur Schule, spielte schon damals in mehreren Bands, zeichnete hervorragend, schrieb, komponierte und litt schon früh an psychischen Störungen. Seine Experimente mit Drogen verursachten 1968 einen schizophrenen Schub, von dem er sich nie wieder erholte. Pink Floyd hielten immer Kontakt zu ihm, widmeten ihm die Songs »Wish You Were Here« und »Shine on You Crazy Diamond«. In einem Kaleidoskop der Erinnerungen lässt Mari Tourmanager, Bandmitglieder, Bühnenarbeiter, aber auch die Regisseure Antonioni und Kubrick von Syd Barrets Welt, von seinem Charme, seinen Ideen und der Faszination, die er seit seiner Jugend auf alle ausübte, erzählen. Ein ergreifender Roman über Poesie, Kunst, Genie und Wahnsinn.
