Chameleon; entertainer; cracked actor; and iconoclast. It would be difficult to think of a rock star who has had a more varied and influential career than David Bowie and the list of bands and musicians who have been influenced by Bowie reads like an A to Z of popular music. But Bowie himself has skillfully and consistently maintained his credibility as the most innovative performer of his generation by staying one jump ahead of the many who seek to imitate him.

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. This book is so lovely.By Erin HeydornI love Miranda Julys work so very much. she has such a unique way of thinking and writing. Each individual story is so interesting. and sometimes so sad or pathetic...I just love the way she writes about each person. Sometimes when she gets into more personal stories I got a little annoyed. at times it felt a little too self indulgent and self praising...but I can also appreciate that because self care and self love is so very important. The final story is very moving and sweet. by far my favorite. The collage that covers the book is great. and the limericks on the inside are very amusing. and even touching after you have finished the book. I read this twice in the first month of owning it. really a must have for any Miranda July fan!2 of 2 people found the following review helpful.

Too often the author gets run over by their stories and while July is brilliant at marrying the surreal with the mostly believable. I loved the poignancy of a leather jacket for $10 or the boy with frogs in his backyard. Real people whose stories often trump anything a creative brain can birth live in this book and thats a rare gift.
