Thelonious Monk est l'un des plus grands pianistes du siecle dernier, un genie de la musique qui aura bouscule les conventions et porte la composition dans le jazz au firmament. Transgressif, sans concession, son art est intemporel, inegale voire inegalable.

Musicien fabuleux, brillant ecrivain et normalien, Laurent de Wilde incarne ici son recit avec style et rigueur. Excellent biographe, pedagogue, l'auteur s'adresse a tous les publics et permet de comprendre et d'apprecier encore plus la musique d'un artiste sans compromis. Un ouvrage devenu reference, incarne ici par la voix de son auteur.
