After tens of years after the first strelnuvshego single 'Space Oddity', Devid Boui remains one of the most influential figures in the world of rock. This book describes in detail the career of Bowie starting with colorful post-Beatles period and ending the era of the Internet. This is a story of incredible power of creative talent, acting skills and almost paranoid desire to stay on the cutting edge of contemporary music. Without exaggeration, this is the most complete set of events in the life of the musician and the most in-depth analysis of its impact on pop culture in general.
