In the ten years since the death of David Bowie in 2016 there has been no loss of interest in and fascination with his life, music and driven, complex personality. Quite the opposite - he is definitely one musician, one performer, destined not to be forgotten. The significant grief and sadness that greeted his death has evolved into a deeper, enduring love for his music, style, wit, artistic curiosity, sexual energy, flamboyant outsider spirit and insatiable, provocative appetite for life.

Far Above the World will document one of the UK's greatest creative artists, capturing his formative years before he became a household name, and then taking the reader through a spectacularly colourful and vibrant journey of a man who constantly reinvented himself and his music.

Writer, broadcaster and cultural critic Paul Morley has written about music, art and entertainment since the 1970s. A founding member of the electronic collective Art of Noise, he is the author of the bestselling biography The Age of Bowie and collaborated with music icon Grace Jones on her New York Times best selling memoir, I'll Never Write My Memoirs. His other books include biographies of Bob Dylan, Joy Division and Factory Records Tony Wilson and a history of the north. He was an artistic advisor for the David Bowie Is exhibition at the V&A.
