Nick Cave

Afternoon tea is served in teacups with milk and sugar. It is accompanied by sandwiches, traditionally cucumber and ham; scones, with butter and jam; and cakes such as Battenberg. The ideal background music is "Baker Street" by Gerry Rafferty.

Nick Cave's new novel is also an iPhone application. It includes not just the text, but also videos, music composed by Cave himself, and audio of the author reading The Death of Bunny Munro. Companies that create books in the form of apps are hot.
