“Every child ought to have the opportunity to travel thousands of miles alone,” Tweedy said, “for the sake of her self-esteem and independence of mind, with clothes and toiletries of her own choosing. The sooner we’re get them in the air, the better.”

Reading on the plane.

This month on the #BowieBookClub we read Mr. Wilson's Cabinet of Wonders by Lawrence Weschler, a short, sharp treatise on a weird, weird museum.

I so very much want to visit the #MuseumofJurassicTechnology now! Who has been before?

My first #bookishadvent is a book that wasn't on our official #BowieBookClub list.
The Wild Hunt by Emma Seckel is a lovely, eerie story about a small community regaining themselves in the shadow of WW2. Ghostly birds. Maybe magic, maybe humanity.

@BookClub @bookstodon There’s a #BowieBookClub? Cool! What happens here/there - a reading group of books recommended by Bowie?

Culture is dead, long live culture.!
This month on the #BowieBookClub we talk about 'In Bluebeard's Castle' by George Steiner, the eccentric polymath who lets us know it's all been downhill for awhile and now those teenagers are just into rock & roll.
