Also critic for NPR he takes us on the remarkable journey that brought a Liverpool art student from a disastrous childhood to the highest realms of fame. He portrays Lennon's rise from Hamburg's red light district to Britain's Royal Variety Show; from the charmed naïveté of "Love Me Do" to the soaring ambivalence of "Don't Let Me Down"; from his shotgun marriage to Cynthia Powell in 1962 to his epic media romance with Yoko Ono. This narrative draws on numerous new and exclusive interviews with Lennon's friends, enemies, confidantes, and associates. He explores Lennon in all of his contradictions: the British art student who universalized an American style, the anarchic rock 'n' roller with the moral spine, the anti-jazz snob who posed naked with his avant-garde lover, and the misogynist who became a househusband. What emerges is the enormous, seductive, and confounding personality that made Lennon a cultural touchstone.--From publisher description. 000433603 60010 $$aLennon, John,$$d1940-1980. 000433603 650_0 $$aRock musicians$$zEngland$$vBiography. 000433603 85200 $$bgen$$hML420.L38$$iR55$$i2011 000433603 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:433603$$pGLOBAL_SET 000433603 980__ $$aBIB 000433603 980__ $$aBOOK
