The Church of John Coltrane

Ten years after the events of Heaven, Robert Marling has blown it all. Ducking his creditors, he retreats to the apartment of his late father. Alone with the dead man's jazz collection, he achieves nothingness. But the silence of the maze-like building is interrupted by music from a different world.

The Church of John Coltrane is the sequel to Heaven which was made into a feature film in 1998. New English language edition published 2023.
