A musician, a visionary, a shapeshifter - David Bowie was an artist of reinvention who was many things to many people, including himself. Through legendary personas, such as Ziggy Stardust and the Thin White Duke, his fearless individuality inspired many. But where did the real Bowie exist and what journey did he make to rediscover himself
This graphic novel follows his friendship with Iggy Pop and other musicians, including Brian Eno; it charts his life during this decade and explores the background to his seminal albums Heroes, Low, and Lodger. Calling ground control to all major Bowie fans, this is an essential collector's classic.
Brian Freschi has worked for many years in theatre and the performing arts, and, since 2018, as an author of illustrated books. He teaches creative writing and scriptwriting for comics at The Sign Academy in Florence.
