Moonage Daydream
The Life & Times of Ziggy Stardust David Bowie, Mick Rock AUTOGRAPHED COLLECTOR'S EDITION #1678
Mint/As New with original packaging

MOONAGE DAYDREAM: THE LIFE AND TIMES OF ZIGGY STARDUST is a collaboration between David Bowie and photographer Mick Rock.
Published to coincide with the 30th anniversary of the Ziggy Stardust LP's original release, MOONAGE DAYDREAM is David Bowie's first ever book and the ultimate authorised piece of Ziggy Stardust legend. David Bowie's sharp, often humorous text discusses the origins of this fascinating stage persona, comments on Mick Rock's photographs, and overall gives unprecedented insight into Ziggy's stratospheric two-year career.
"The last word on the subject of Ziggy Stardust... few books are this lovingly produced... Genesis Publications, the leading practitioners of craftsmen-produced coffee-table extravaganzas." GQ, June 2003
"Simply beautiful" Elle (Germany, Austria and Switzerland), April 2003
"You're a fool to miss out" Mojo, April 2003
"Another limited edition masterpiece from England's Genesis Publications... [which] features a 15,000-word text by Bowie, who's hardly ever gone on record, certainly not at such length and with so much detail, about Ziggy and the glam era." The Washington Post
"An extravagant coffee-table book that collects Mick Rock's photographs of the chameleon rock star as Ziggy Stardust ... there is more than enough for both the casual Bowie fan and the obsessive." The Observer, January 2003

"The closest we'll ever get to a straight-up Bowie autobiography – but who'd ever want anything straight-up from Bowie?" Rolling Stone, September 2012
"This is a book of extraordinary photographs. Ziggy Stardust blazed briefly but intensely, and I am delighted to see his life and times as a rock'n'roll star immortalised in this beautiful limited edition." David Bowie
