An extraordinary collection of interviews with the beloved doctor and author, whose research and books inspired generations of readers. Oliver Sacks – called ‘the poet laureate of medicine’ by the New York Times – illuminated the mysteries of the brain for a wide audience in a series of richly acclaimed books and numerous articles for ‘The New Yorker’. Here, Sacks is at his most candid and disarming, rich with insights about his life and work.
The massive, worldwide outpouring of grief at the death of David Bowie notably focused on not only his stunning musical output, but also his fascinating refusal to stay the same – the same as other trending artists, or even the same as himself. In this remarkable collection, Bowie reveals the fierce intellectualism, artistry and humour behind it all. From his very first interview – as a teenager on the BBC, before he was even a musician – to his last, Bowie takes on the most probing questions, candidly discussing his sexuality, his drug usage, his sense of fashion, how he composed, and more.
Long before Ridley Scott transformed ‘Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?’ (1968) into ‘Blade Runner’ (1982), Philip K. Dick was banging away at his typewriter in relative obscurity, ostracised by the literary establishment. Today he is widely considered one of the most influential writers of the 20th century. These interviews reveal a man plagued by bouts of manic paranoia and failed suicide attempts; a career fuelled by alcohol, amphetamines and mystical inspiration – and, above all, a magnificent and generous imagination at work.
