Mark Oliver Everett's upbringing was 'ridiculous, sometimes tragic and always unsteady'. His father - a quantum mechanic who worked for the Pentagon - was a genius who had corresponded with Einstein aged 13. He rarely spoke, and following his own miserable childhood had eccentric ideas of how children should be brought up. Raised in a house with no rules, with parents who had 'a kind of seventies swinging marriage', Everett had to raise himself, not always with the greatest success.
