En savoir plus sur le livre
For over 25 years, Philip Norman's bestselling biography has been the definitive account of the Beatles. Now, he focuses on the Beatle who always sought more. Utilizing previously untapped sources and gaining unprecedented access to key figures, Norman presents the most comprehensive and revealing portrait of John Lennon to date. This biography offers a fresh perspective on every aspect of Lennon's life, including the songs that have elevated him to near-saint status posthumously. After three years of research, Norman has uncovered an extraordinary amount of new information about well-known episodes of Lennon's life—his upbringing by Aunt Mimi, his school years, the creative partnership with Paul McCartney, his love affair with a Japanese performance artist, and his ventures into painting, literature, and various therapies. Key informants include Sir Paul McCartney, Sir George Martin, Sean Lennon—whose heartfelt memories provide new insights—and Yoko Ono, who candidly discusses their marriage. Honest and unflinching, Norman captures the complexities of Lennon—his toughness, cynicism, humor, vulnerability, and insecurities—while revealing how his early abandonment haunted him throughout his life and music.
