'The most complete and compelling portrait of Bowie's life ever assembled'
Rolling Stone
Has there ever been a more charismatic and intriguing rock star than David Bowie? In Starman, Paul Trynka has painted the definitive portrait of a great artist. From Bowie's early years in post-war, bombed-out Brixton to the decadent glamour of Ziggy Stardust to the controversial but vital Berlin period, this essential biography is a celebration of Bowie's brilliance and a timely reminder of how great music is made.
'A ripping read ... authoritatively written with wit, verve and an obvious love of his subject matter, there are enough new facts and anecdotes to excite even the most obsessive Bowie fan ... if you've read every previous Bowie biography Starman is still more than worth investigating, and if you've never read anything it's the perfect place to start'
Sunday Express

Description du livre Hardcover. Etat : New. Etat de la jaquette : New. 1st Edition. He is a legend whose personas are indelibly etched on our pop music consciousness and a genius who has been both mainstream hit maker and art-rock pioneer. At one time proclaiming his bisexuality, he dared to push the boundaries of gender and sexuality further than any other public figure before him. He has been a friend, champion, and collaborator to music icons such as Freddie Mercury, Mick Jagger, Brian Eno, Lou Reed, Iggy Pop, and John Lennon. His music has influenced countless other musicians as wide-ranging as Nirvana, Lady Gaga, and the Flaming lips. He is the Thin White Duke and, of course, Ziggy Stardust. David Bowie is many things, but above all, he is one of rock's great singers and musicians, a restless star with a constantly evolving style, from the delicate piano-driven melodies of Hunky Dory through the snarling guitars of The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust, the experimental krautrock of Heroes, and the MTV-ready pop of Let's Dance. With more than 250 new interviews with Bowie's friends and associates, from lovers to band members, classmates, and managers, Paul Trynka's definitive account of this monumental life illuminates every facet of Bowie, every contradiction and reinvention, starting with his childhood as a blue-collar boy named David Jones from South London and his early days as a hardworking songwriter dedicated to learning his craft, and moving through the long and fascinating career that led him to be a movie star, trendsetter, glittery glam idol, taboo breaker, and sex symbol. Above all, this book details not just how David JOnes reinvented himself on the outside, but how an ambitious child with more desire and drive than talent transformed himself into a genius on the inside. David Bowie: Starman is the most intensive, accurate, and thoughtful biography of the first truly modern rock star, and the book that will define David Bowie for years to come.
