“The press crucified me: I was a cold being who had turned his back on his family and abandoned his brother for years. Who were they to know what I felt? Where were they when Terry began to suffer? Did they have any idea how frustrated I was each time I saw him and realized that I was losing him little by little.”
― María Hesse, Bowie : Una biografía

― María Hesse, Bowie : Una biografía
