A rock star, a school clown, a subverter of the foundations, a joker, a fighter for peace and an eccentric millionaire ... - all this is John Lennon, the creator of the Beatles, one of the greatest and most mythologized musicians of the 1960th century. From a lonely childhood in post-war Liverpool to murder by a crazed fan, writer and journalist Ray Connolly has chronicled this turbulent life in detail, portraying Lennon as a complex, controversial, not always "good" and pleasant person, but always alive, sincere and passionate. Connolly was closely acquainted with Lennon, more than once interviewed him and other Beatles. In this book, he draws on his rich archive of documents, as well as personal conversations with John, with his first and second wives - Cynthia Lennon and Yoko Ono - and with many other participants in the events. He is trying to truly understand his hero, who is constantly reinventing himself and his biography, to get to the bottom of the reasons for his actions, including strange and unexpected ones. In this voluminous work, a sea of fascinating details from the life of Lennon, the history of the Beatles and the entire era of the XNUMXs, but without textbook gloss, honest and unbiased.
