We are all talking about Bowie. This morning, the day after the news of his death, book designer Jessica Horrocks at Text sent me her homage-parody.
With fine instincts she picked on the film tie-in edition of Lionel Shriver’s celebrated bestseller We Need to Talk About Kevin.
Tilda Swinton, who features in the film and on the cover, was a friend of Bowie’s and herself a great shapeshifter.
Bowie was a lightning bolt and in his wake we shed rainstorms.
