What the label says:

This release is a strictly limited hard back 4'' square book, 46 pages, with 3'' CD inside with the track 'Dig, Lazarus, Dig!!!'. The book contains handwritten lyrics and notes from Nick, photos and the story of the song and an interview with Nick, Tim and Sue about their story along with pictures of Sue and Tim working on creating the installation artwork for the front cover of album. All of the material is not available anywhere else and has been specifically put together by Nick for this book. Here's what Nick Cave has to say about it: "The little book is about the making of the song 'Dig, Lazarus, Dig!!!'. It is a curiosity that deals with the preparation and final glorious outcome of a project that began on the back of an envelope, a literal 'scrap' of an idea and ended up evolving into a genuine cultural icon and classic rock'n'roll song, due to the collaborative efforts of myself and Brit artists Sue Webster and Tim Noble. The song, which is a comic re-imagining of the Lazarus myth (placing the recently 'risen' Lazarus in 70's New York City) is accompanied by an eight foot square light sculpture, employing over 750 light bulbs, built by Webster and Noble. This little book documents the journey of this mammoth collaboration. Dig it!!!"
