V. by Thomas Pynchon

Welcome to another episode of the Bowie Book Club, where wild
speculation and grasping for straws about Bowie’s favorite books has
reigned supreme since 2016. This time we read the story of...the story of...we'll we're not entirely sure. It was called V. by the very publically visible Thomas Pynchon and it was a lot of fun anyways!

Basquiat - The Notebooks

Welcome to another episode of the Bowie Book Club, where wild speculation and grasping for straws about Bowie’s favorite books has reigned supreme since 2016. This time we read Basquiat - The Notebooks edited by Larry Warsh - just like the ones you used in grade school, but probably worth a lot more!

The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind by Julian Jaynes

 This time we read a very entertaining tract about consciousness, hallucinations, poetry, religion and a crackpot theory that ties them all together - in short, what you expected to read in college as a liberal arts major. It's Julian Jayne's magnum opus - The Origin of Consciousness  in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind

Passing by Nella Larsen

Welcome to another episode of the Bowie Book Club, where wild speculation and grasping for straws about Bowie’s favorite books has reigned supreme since 2016. This time we read Passing, a classic exploration of race set in 1920's Harlem by Nella Larsen. Also, if you don't love books, you don't love Bowie, ok?

The Bridge by Hart Crane

 This time we read The Bridge a series of high-falutin' modernist poems written in the late 1920's by the apparently oft-inebriate scion of a candy empire, Hart Crane.
