'A wondrous collection of writings to provoke the Bowie fan into deepening their understanding of the man, not just the myth.' Dave Roberts, God is in the TV zine 'Insightful and vibrant, Far Above the World is a compelling reminder that Bowie's influence didn't end in 2016. Instead, it continues to illuminate the present and chart the path ahead.' The Voice 'I really enjoyed the intimacy of the read. A zoetrope of the life of David Robert Jones.' Bono 'I love Paul Morley's writing about David Bowie ... magical and inspired, like Bowie himself.' Johnny Marr 'A compelling chronicle of David Bowie's search for new ideas and where they led him. Bowie: the keen-bean enthusiast and cunning strategist, the original and the imitator, the star and the bloke, the pale intellectual and the sexy rock-and-roller. Paul Morley brings them all together in this intriguingly philosophical study of a unique artist.' Neil Tennant A landmark exploration of David Bowie as an everlasting cultural force and changemaker, by acclaimed writer Paul Morley. In the ten years since the death of David Bowie in 2016 there has been no loss of interest in and fascination with his life, music and driven, complex personality. He is definitely one musician, one performer, destined not to be forgotten. The significant grief and sadness that greeted Bowie's death has evolved into a deeper, enduring love for his music, style, wit, artistic curiosity, sexual energy, flamboyant outsider spirit and insatiable, provocative appetite for life. Far Above the World documents one of the UK's greatest creative artists, through the spectacularly colourful and vibrant journey of a man who constantly reinvented himself and his music. Bowie lived in the future, using the pop song to chronicle overwhelming and dangerous times, searching for the light, and creating a communication channel between post-war 20th century times and where(ever) we are now. This anniversary book will place him in the now and next, as much as is past, and argue that his songs, and his messages, reflections and warnings become ever more relevant and compelling as time passes.
