March Catchup Episode: The Fire Next Time, Vacation Envy and More!

Welcome to another episode of the Bowie Book Club, where wild speculation and grasping for straws about Bowie’s favorite books has reigned supreme since 2016. This time we catch up on the discussion of The Fire Next Time on the socials media, talk about other stuff we've been putting in our eyes, and looking forward to what's next on @manmademoon's list - Puckoon by Spike Milligan, and what's next on ours - Earthly Powers by Anthony Burgess.
