Challenge

This book is a challenge to such obvious historical rewrites. As the only writer on John Lennon to have spent all his life in Liverpool, the author, Francis Kenny is uniquely placed to challenge orthodox versions of the ‘Lennon Story’. The Making of John Lennon presents a journey into the confusion and pain that lay behind one of popular music’s most researched, yet most misunderstood, geniuses. What follows is how John Lennon came to be John Lennon, musical genius. As ever, it all starts in Liverpool.
