4.0 out of 5 stars
Full of facts but not enough soul
This first proper biography of David Sylvian offers a good introduction to this wonderfull but often misunderstood artis. For the diehard followers, who have waited some time to get to know better the complex man behind the music, this work is slightly unsatisfying.

Much needed biography, but could have been a bit better
It's about time someone write a biography of David Sylvian and Japan. This is a good book, great cover photo, nice appropriate title, but contains too much info. on David's later solo career and material, and is disappointingly sparce on his years with Japan, (which made him famous in the first place). I have a feeling this is the biography Sylvian would want you to...

More Japan Please!,
By Tyler B. "Tyler B." (Portland, OR) - See all my reviews
This review is from: David Sylvian: The Last Romantic (Paperback)
Although this book is very interesting, it should have spent more time covering Japan. Way more time....

Sylvian Unveiled?,
By A Customer
This review is from: David Sylvian: The Last Romantic (Paperback)
Martin Powers undertakes the difficult task of illustrating David Sylvian, the most elusive artist. This book is very interesting because the author takes you on a journey through the history of David's artistic career, and also provides the foundation during the new wave era. I highly reccomend this book.
