Bowie no era solo un músico. Era una máquina de creatividad que destilaba arte por todos los sus poros. Era una mente inquieta y como toda mente inquieta, sentía una atracción casi obsesiva con los libros. Los curadores de la exposición David Bowie Is, Geoffrey Marsh y Victoria Broackes, dicen que el camaleón intergaláctico podía leer un libro al día y entre los 300 objetos del artista que forman esta colección, decidieron también compartir los libros más inspiraron al gran Bowie.Aquí están pa que se antojen y los lean, cortesía del portal Open Book:The Age of American Unreason, Susan Jacoby, 2008The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao, Junot Diaz, 2007The Coast of Utopia (trilogy), Tom Stoppard, 2007Teenage: The Creation of Youth 1875-1945, Jon Savage, 2007Fingersmith, Sarah Waters, 2002The Trial of Henry Kissinger, Christopher Hitchens, 2001Mr. Wilson's Cabinet of Wonder, Lawrence Weschler, 1997A People's Tragedy: The Russian Revolution 1890-1924, Orlando Figes, 1997The Insult, Rupert Thomson, 1996Wonder Boys, Michael Chabon, 1995The Bird Artist, Howard Norman, 1994Kafka Was The Rage: A Greenwich Village Memoir, Anatole Broyard, 1993Beyond the Brillo Box: The Visual Arts in Post-Historical Perspective, Arthur C.
