Introducing One Hundred Words About David Bowie

 


It’s been five years since David Bowie died. Television and radio have been full of documentaries and programmes about him. I’ve been listening and watching some of them. At Christmas, I got given a book. Why Bowie Matters by Will Brooker. Brooker is a Bowie fan and academic and has written a unique biography and personal memoir of Bowie. I loved it – despite its many failings. It has enabled me to review my own personal experience of being a Bowie fan and has inspired me to write a couple of poems. I’m going to share some of my thoughts here.
