Bowie by Christopher Sandford

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.
Christopher Sandford has followed, reviewed and written about rock music for twenty years. His biographies of Mick Jagger, Eric Clapton, Kurt Cobain and David Bowie have won him widespread critical acclaim.
