Nick Kent is a legendary rock critic and author of the memoir Apathy for the Devil (Faber) and The Dark Stuff (Faber) which the Spectator called 'a mighty tome, containing some of the best music journalism ever written'. He was also an apprentice to Lester Bangs, boyfriend of Chrissie Hynde, confidant of Iggy Pop, trusted scribe for Led Zeppelin and the Rolling Stones, and early member of the Sex Pistols. The Unstable Boys is his first novel.
