Summary:
"An
oral
biography
by the longtime editor of British GQ, tracing the life of superstar
David
Bowie
through the words of those who knew him, loved him, worked alongside and made unforgettable music with him. The outpouring of tributes after
David
Bowie
's death in January 2016 revealed a powerful connection to the artist. His death brought forth an outpouring of stories about the man himself - and yet even these were just the tip of the iceberg, a brief, private glimpse at a star who seemed to take pride in casting off identities as soon as they'd served their purpose. Drawn from nearly 200 interviews with
Bowie
's producers, bandmates, managers, lovers and more, this book tells
Bowie
's story. Stretching from his English childhood to the first blush of stardom, to early 70s New York and London through the wild hedonism of mid-decade Los Angeles, to Berlin and beyond, an intimate, cocktail-party tour of an incredible life and mind, using deep narration of key moments in
Bowie
's career to explore his unique ability to make millions feel as if he were speaking to them individually"--Provided by publisher.
