A review discusses Paul Morley's extensive anthology, "Far Above the World," which explores the life and ideas of David Bowie. While the reviewer acknowledges the book's interesting biographical material and mentions collaborators like Tony Visconti and Carlos Alomar, they find the work longer than necessary, with tangents into unrelated figures. Separately, the review touches upon Evelyn Waugh's classic novel "Decline and Fall," noting its satirical portrayal of British life in 1926 and the protagonist's journey through misfortune after being expelled from Oxford.
