LOW - Bowie's Berlin Years
Reinhard Kleist
David Bowie’s legendary time in West Berlin as he searches for inspiration and records his 1977 album Low
LOW traces the aftermath of David Bowie’s groundbreaking tour of America and the iconic “Berlin years” that followed.
Hot on the platform heels of Starman: Bowie’s Stardust Years (SelfMadeHero, 2023), Reinhard Kleist masterfully concludes his two-part biography of David Bowie.
In 1976, Bowie escaped the frantic madness and substance abuse of his life in Los Angeles for the Wall of the divided city of Berlin. With his friend Iggy Pop in tow, Bowie quit drugs and created LOW, the first album of his “Berlin Trilogy.” But even here, in some of the happiest days of his life, Ziggy Stardust would not let him go . . .
LOW follows Bowie’s forays through West Berlin’s revolutionary music scene and wild club life, and takes us deep into his recording sessions at Hansa Studios. The friendship between Bowie and Iggy drives both artists to new creative heights, while Bowie’s relationship with the cabaret artist and drag icon Romy Haag illuminates his fascination with Berlin as a city on the brink.
Kleist’s LOW is both a retelling of Bowie’s Berlin years and a vibrant portrait of the city itself.

Tegneserier på engelsk
Velkommen til Faraos Cigarers US Comics-afdeling. Her har vi et bredt udvalg af tegneserier på engelsk.
I Faraos Cigarers US Comics-afdeling kan du finde traditionelle tegneserier med superhelte, hvor de store superhelte-forlag Marvel & DC står for det meste. Det er f.eks. superhelte som Spider-Man, Superman, Wonder Woman, Batman, Deadpool, Justice League, Avengers og X-Men.
Vi har dog også yderligere nævneværdige mesterværker som Alan Moores “The Watchmen” og “Top Ten”, og ikke mindst “Kurt Busiek’s Astro City.” Vi kan også tilbyde tegneserier på engelsk med hårdkogt noir som Frank Millers “Sin City”, Ed Brubakers “Criminal”, Brian Azzarello og Eduardo Rissos “100 Bullets”. Når det gælder spændende fantasy-tegneserier, fører vi bl.a. Mike Mignolas “Hellboy”, Neil Gaimans “The Sandman”, Alan Moores “The Swamp Thing”, “Promethea” samt “The League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen.” Vi fører også tankevækkende og dystopisk science fiction som Rick Remenders “Black Science”, Brian K. Vaughans “Saga” og “Y, The Last Man” samt Jeff Lemires “Descender.” Endelig fører vi også grufuld horror som Robert Kirkmans “The Walking Dead” og Scott Snyders “American Vampire.”
Hvis du er til historier fra den virkelige verden (eller i nabolaget), så har vi også graphic novels med rejsedagbøger fra nær og fjern, krigsjournalistik, (u)lykkelig kærlighed og indsigtsfulde hverdagshistorier.
De fleste amerikanske tegneserier bliver udgivet i serieformat i 20 siders månedlige hæfter (også kaldet single issues), oftest med masser af reklamesider i og på størrelse med et Anders And-blad. Det er dog blevet standard, at disse hæfter bliver genoptrykt i et trade paperback-format (ca. 17x26cm) med typisk 5-6 hæfter i hver, et pænt omslag og uden reklamerne. Størstedelen af vores tegneserier på engelsk er trade paperbacks, men der findes også flere variationer af både større og mindre paperbacks (softcover), samt en række indbundne luksus-udgivelser (hardcover eller kortere bare HC).
