What happened is that they indulged their lowest animal passions and lived lives that went out of control. All of this would be just one more trashy rock star biography except that Angie Bowie seems to have no regrets and no insights about any of this, even years after the facts. Not this one. This is what made this book fascinatingly vulgar, and unintentionally hilarious. I shared it with a friend and he found it to be one of the funniest things he had read in months.
People are tired of irresponsibility, substance abuse, wasteful living, promiscuity, and cheating.
David comes across as whacked out on drugs and in need of critical psychiatric help during the period this was written. Doesn't look like it from the evidence here. I enjoyed the glimpse of Swinging London Angie provided, but I really found most of the stuff she wrote hard to believe. If you are looking for a good David Bowie bio, I'd recommend you go elsewhere. Angie spends much of the book bragging about her crazy life and sexual exploits with rock stars, which gets old pretty quick.
