David Bowie's Formative Reading List - Page 2

By Maria Popova at the Marginalian:
"A retrospective of the artist's work at the Art Gallery of Ontario featured 75 of Bowie's must-read books — a fascinating tour of his cross-disciplinary curiosity and the fuel for his combinatorial creativity. Although all but two of the books were published within Bowie's lifetime — with the exceptions published within two years of his birth — he makes up for the presentism bias with an extraordinary diversity of disciplines, topics, and sensibilities, ranging from poetry to history to theory of mind, with plenty of fiction and a few magazines for good measure."
