The enigmatic founder and leader of the Beatles, John Lennon was not only a groundbreaking musician and composer for the ages, but also a keen philosopher, seeker of truth, and politically savvy advocate of nonviolence, tolerance, and unrestricted personal freedom. The enlightened big brother to several generations, Lennon consistently gave everything he had, and then some, to his liberated, infectious music, and wide-ranging, common-sense political ideals.
In this expansive, comprehensive collection, the very best of John Lennon’s thought-provoking words, the myth, legend, and rumor surrounding this great man is stripped away, and the real John, as an artist and thoughtful global citizen, emerges. Here, Lennon is free to speak his mind on an incredible array of subjects, including his work with the Beatles, his relationships with the other members of the group, the painful trails of his parentless childhood, the creation of his artistic work, and other equally engrossing, entertaining Lennonspeak. Here is the perfect collection of the great John Lennon for every dedicated Beatles fan, music historian, the media as well as all school, library, institutional, and university collections.
