‘Sadness and longing in the wildest pleasures’ – The Undercover Soundtrack, Rohan Quine

Posted by Roz Morris @Roz_Morris in Undercover Soundtrack on July 2, 2014

My guest this week writes urban fiction imbued with magical realism and horror. His characters are drawn directly from soundtracks, from music that expressed their desperation, loneliness, fragility and streetwise sass – Sinead O’Connor to Madonna; Dead Can Dance to Suede and Soft Cell. He is Rohan Quine and he’s on the Red Blog with his Undercover Soundtrack.
