Bowie Odyssey 75

Book by book, year by year, the ultimate literary trip through Bowie's greatest decade. Monsters! They're everywhere in 1975. Killer sharks on the big screen. Murderers stalking the streets of Chelsea. Masked rapists on the loose in Cambridge. Staring back at David Bowie from his mirror. . . Crucified by addiction, David must suffer his own stations of the cross in a year that will either save or destroy him. Swapping the paranoia of New York for the madhouse of Los Angeles, he turns his back on rock 'n' roll to play a doomed extraterrestrial in his first feature film. But with so many demons in his head, has David gone too high ever to fall back to earth himself? And if he does, having torched so many bridges to the past, will there be anyone left to catch him? The sixth volume in Simon Goddard's epic adventure through Bowie's greatest decade, Bowie Odyssey 75 is a ten-gram panic attack of drugs, death and the momentous birth of the Thin White Duke.
