David Bowie is a staple on classic rock radio, and deservedly so. The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars (and my Rykodisc extended version) is clearly a four-star album. I am also quite fond of Outside (1995) and Earthling (2007), among other releases. Bowie has had duds. I listened to Diamond Dogs often in college, but when I listened to the release years later I was completely unimpressed. Heathen (2002) and Reality (2003) are losers as well. But this posting is not about Bowie as a musician; instead, he has posted his favorite books.

A majority of the books are fiction. I rarely read fiction so I have not read most of the listed books. However, I have read five works of fiction on the list and one book of nonfiction, i.e., The Trial of Henry Kissinger. I think I need to reread “Trial” while on furlough.
How many of the books on the list have you read?
