I'll be honest: Paul Morley's style in Far Above The World: The Time And Space Of David Bowie has rendered the prospect of reading the copy of his doorstop book about Tony Wilson currently sitting on my shelves less appealing. But, in fairness, if any musician deserves to be written about in this way - exaggeratedly, often breathlessly - then it's Bowie, defined by his creative restlessness, his otherworldliness, his manic energy, his determination to avoid sterility and stay ahead of the curve.
