Review: A great introduction to Bowie's opus - A very lively and yet retrospective synopsis of Bowie's career from the very beginning. I think this is perhaps the most informed book about Bowie that encapsulates his creative genius before he was finally famous and also captures his mindset to a degree where this is not a psychological treatise but a celebration of his bravery to try new things and what effects it had on Bowie's fan base throughout the years. A great introduction to Bowie's opus, especially for those who did not grow up in the experimental phase of the 70's, (though not so far from preceeding 60's inspirations), that Bowie seemed to have molded to suit his strengths and then took drastic directions in his approach, and the risks, to achieve far more fetching results that were not immediately accessible to the public at the time of his some of his releases. A vivid account of a visionary artist before his time but an acknowledgment of his challenges especially in in light of his inclinations, no matter how derived, that changed the music world and allowed him a subsequent career as a classic icon still in motion.
Review: Excellent - Was given as a gift. According to my spouse, it was the PERFECT GIFT.

A very lively and yet retrospective synopsis of Bowie's career from the very beginning.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautiful All Around
*by R***O on March 1, 2020*

Doesn't have any information hardcore Bowie fans wouldn't know, and it's mostly focused on a certain era of his life. But, the book itself has a wonderful cover texture and the image of the face on the white is stark and awesome. The images inside are of good quality, too. Overall a very nice purchase.
