Description
This Is Memorial Device by David Keenan is a dark and witty novel about the power of art to shape our lives. Set against the vibrant backdrop of the Airdrie post-punk scene in the early 1980s, the story follows two fans as they piece together the legend of Memorial Device, a band that never quite made it to the mainstream.
Through its cast of misfits and small-town visionaries, this novel explores the tensions between creativity and commercialism, and the ways in which art can both inspire and demand. With its unique blend of music, history, and fiction, This Is Memorial Device is a compelling exploration of the enduring power of art to shape our understanding of ourselves and the world around us.
