What Is David Bowie’s Real Legacy?

This week marks 10 years since the death of the musician, actor, unlikely internet pioneer, and occasional artist David Bowie. That the decade’s anniversary is considered worth marking indicates that Bowie’s standing remains undiminished, with an end that came only two days after the release of his final album, the masterly Blackstar. There have been countless reissues, new biographies (including my own), and documentaries about him. Bowie may be dead, but his spirit lives on, triumphantly.
