ME AND MR JONES - SUZI RONSON KARTONIERT (TB)

From the stylist behind David Bowie's Ziggy Stardust look  an electrifying peek behind the
curtains during a legendary chapter of pop culture history. 'Suzi Ronson was there as Bowie
transitioned from suburban folkie to world superstar and genius. Few can offer such insight 
and tell this fascinating story with such verve.' HANIF KUREISHI Suzi Ronson was working in a
Beckenham hair salon in the early seventies when Mrs Jones came in for her weekly shampoo and
set. After being introduced to her son David and his wife Angie  Suzi finds herself at the
Bowies' bohemian apartment and is soon embroiled in their raucous world. Having crafted his
iconic Ziggy Stardust hairstyle  Suzi becomes the only working woman in David's touring party
and joins the Spiders from Mars as they perform around the globe. Amid the costume blunders 
parties and groupies she meets her husband-to-be  Mick Ronson  and together they traverse the
absurdities of life in show business  falling in with the likes of Iggy Pop  Bob Dylan and Lou
Reed along the way. Dazzling and intimate  Me and Mr Jones provides not only a unique
perspective on one of the most beguiling stars of our time but also a world on the cusp of
cultural transformation  charting the highs and lows of life as one of the only women in the
room as it happened.
