Sommario/riassunto

"In these interviews collected throughout his fabled career--including his first, when he was sixteen, as well as his last, decades later--David Bowie discusses his childhood in the rough streets of South London, songwriting, his problems with drug abuse, the influence of Andy Warhol, sexuality, his movies, fashion, working with Brian Eno, his friendship with John Lennon, and more. Ever articulate, with a wicked wit always at hand, Bowie shows here why he was always considered ahead of his time--both in art making and cultural commentary"--Back cover.
