| | | From the bestselling author of "Shout" comes an extraordinarily detailed, vibrant, in-depth account of the life of John Lennon--the most deeply researched and comprehensive biography to date. 16-page color photo insert; 16-page b&w photo insert. Annotation: Fleshing out one of the most fascinating subjects of his previous book, SHOUT!--appreciated as one of the early, definitive histories of the Fab Four--Philip Norman takes a closer look at the most famous Beatle. Norman spends thoughtful energy on John Lennon's formative years raised by his aunt in his parents' absence, and of course tells the familiar, but always thrilling story of the band's Liverpool beginnings and rise to international cult status. Norman collects interviews from Paul McCartney, George Martin, Yoko Ono (who initially cooperated but eventually pulled her support of the book), and others. From an expert comes this account of the artist, activist, and legend who looms as large as any other in Western pop culture's memory.
