Alexander Larman

The man who fell from favour – David Bowie’s tricky middle age In Lazarus, the author Alexander Larman chronicles how the pop star burst out of the doldrums of his mid-career years to have a last creative blast

Thrilled to read @victoriasegal.bsky.social’s glowing review of ‘Lazarus’ by @alexlarman.bsky.social in today’s @thetimes.com.

Never afraid to provide critical balance, Alex’s love for his subject is both honest and profound. One of *the* definitive books on Bowie
