He blurred the boundaries of high art and low with images of Dylan, Hendrix and naked flower children that defined an era. Along the way the irreverent Australian was charged with obscenity and collaborated with Eric Clapton as he drew rock stars and reprobates into his world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this richly told and beautifully written biography, Joyce Morgan captures the loneliness of a privileged childhood, the heady days of the underground magazine \u003ci\u003eOz\u003c\/i\u003e as well as the exuberant creativity of Swinging London and beyond.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSharp pursued his quixotic dream to realise van Gogh's Yellow House in Australia. He obsessively championed eccentric singer Tiny Tim and was haunted by Sydney's Luna Park. Charismatic and paradoxical, he became a recluse whose phone never stopped ringing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThere was no one like Martin Sharp. When he died, he was described as a stranger in a strange land who left behind a trail of stardust.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ WELL_READ \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52696765071633,"sku":"GOR014582223","price":7.7,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":67825340350737,"sku":"GOR012185043","price":16.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781760111755.jpg?v=1794389966","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-gb\/products\/martin-sharp-book-joyce-morgan-9781760111755","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
