Blackstar Theory takes a close look at David Bowie's ambitious last works: his surprise 'comeback' project The Next Day (2013), the off-Broadway musical Lazarus (2015) and the album that preceded the artist's death in 2016 by two days, Blackstar. The book explores the swirl of themes that orbit and entangle these projects from a starting point in musical analysis and features new interviews with key collaborators from the period: producer Tony Visconti, graphic designer Jonathan Barnbrook, musical director Henry Hey, saxophonist Donny McCaslin and assistant sound engineer Erin Tonkon. These works tackle the biggest of ideas: identity, creativity, chaos, transience and immortality. They enact a process of individuation for the Bowie meta-persona and invite us to consider what happens when a star dies. In our universe, dying stars do not disappear - they transform into new stellar objects, remnants and gravitational forces. The radical potential of the Blackstar is demonstrated in the rock star supernova that creates a singularity resulting in cultural iconicity. It is how a man approaching his own death can create art that illuminates the immortal potential of all matter in the known universe.

Leah Grey was still in her twenties when her life fell apart. She couldn’t decide what was more depressing—the state of her marriage, or the fact that she lived in Jersey City instead of Manhattan. Until meeting her husband, she’d lived the most cliché life. She’d come from a small town in Canada that smelled like fish or manure, depending on the season. She’d fallen in love with the boy down the road, and she had a dog. Her life had been unbearably predictable—until one snowy New Year’s Eve, a tall, dark, and handsome stranger from New York City walked into her life. Her debut book, No One Brings You a Casserole When Your Husband Goes to Rehab, is a poignant coming-of-age story about curly-haired boys and the dark side of having your dreams come true. From poufy dresses and a whirlwind romance to considering when it was time to jump into the Hudson River, Leah candidly tells of her personal transformation through her husband’s struggle with addiction. Her story offers hope to every girl who has felt like she needed to run away from her dreams because they didn’t come true.
