Unfortunately, this book comes off as rather sensationalist. The author enjoys dwelling on emotional episodes and makes a fair amount of historical error; it's no
Strange Fascination. It does, however, have a brilliant set of centre photos, some of which I have yet to see elsewhere.
Based on interviews with family members, colleagues, lovers, and
the previously silent William Burroughs, this unsparing yet
even-handed biography guides the reader through the many personas,
crises, and musical metamorphoses of David Bowie - also known as
Davy Jones, the Laughing Gnome, Major Tom, Ziggy Stardust, Aladdin
Sane, the Thin White Duke, a drug-addled grandfather of punk,
actor, art aficionado, political activist, one of rock's most
resonant icons, and a totem of modern pop culture. Nowhere else is
the man and musician so convincingly deconstructed and so
compellingly humanized.
