Publisher's Synopsis
Iconic Albums: David Bowie - Hunky Dory
A profound journey into the album that shaped a legend-and continues to inspire generations of misfits, dreamers, and creators.
Before Ziggy fell to Earth, before the lightning bolt, and long before Blackstar closed the curtain-there was Hunky Dory. It was here, in 1971, that David Bowie stepped out of obscurity and into the shape of something entirely new: a myth in the making, a shapeshifter in mid-transformation. In this definitive book, Iconic Albums: David Bowie - Hunky Dory, discover the full story of the album that became a spiritual touchstone for those who live and think outside the norm.
This is not just a biography or a track-by-track breakdown. This is a literary deep-dive into identity, sound, philosophy, and performance-the elements that made Hunky Dory more than just a rock record. Through 25 immersive chapters, readers are invited to step inside the world Bowie created: surreal, introspective, intellectual, and bursting with possibility.
