    Good read for Bowie fans
  

*by T***E on Reviewed in the United States on 16 February 2016*

Very interesting reading of Bowie's so called creative period. As a fan, I was able to see how he works to create his music and what his strength and weakness as human are. It was a bit hard to get used to the author's style of writing but I got into it once I started reading. Good book, if you are a fan of David Bowie.

    BEST BOWIE BOOK
  

*by G***G on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 15 August 2015*

What a great book on Bowie's Berlin period: what was going on in his head and what he made of it.Tobias Ruther not only knows how to go the extra mile in research, he knows how to weave a narrative out of the facts.  And he knows how to speculate and tell the difference.More than that, this author, unknown to me until now, has his own style and it's fluent and ironic and incisive and succinct, with enough iconoclastic stand-off to see beyond Hero-worship.I love his rhetoric."Who would want to listen to such a thing?"He has a way of producing the rhetorical equivalent of the double-take  - - "No one.  No, everyone would!" - -  with some nice variations, and what more appropriate topic for the double-take than Bowie's shape-shifting tenure in Berlin?Timing.  Tobias Ruther has the innate confidence of an innately good writer to plant a notion in passing with a nicely timed delayed echo: it's part of his style.He notices actor David Niven as one of the few audience-members who *doesn't* walk out of a concert by German band Can, but what's Niven doing there in the first place? - - returning to the name-drop a few sentences later in case you thought you hallucinated his presence - - "Among them was David Niven.  And David Bowie."Another one: he cites BLADE RUNNER as an appropriate evocation for HEROES...let's the anachronism stand for a paragraph and then returns for the double-take:"But BLADE RUNNER still hasn't been filmed yet, has it?"Bowie fantasised about crossing timelines, and this book manages to lay echoes of time past and future over the linear timeline of Bowie and Berlin and it works, beautifully.  It's rich, and easy to read.Bowie should read this, and recommend it to all his friends.
