From Bookmarks Magazine Critics generally praised John Lennon: The Life, though they often seemed shocked at how much hate and violence could be found in one of the 20th century's most famous proponents of peace and love. But most reviewers concluded that the bulk of this biography was appropriate, not only because Norman is the first author to investigate Lennon in such detail but because his sense for which details are interesting (a well-developed portrayal of the young Lennon's Liverpool) and which are not (Beatles ephemera) keeps the book
Much useful facts, beware of the author bias Marco Roman Plenty of detail on John's life. I am a long time Beatles fan, but still learned a lot.

"I have a better understanding of these two men than I did before" according to Julie E.. When I finished Paul McCartney by Philip Norman, I decided that I needed to read Lennon's story from the same author. The author refers to the John Lennon book a number of times during the Paul McCartney book. End result, while there is nothing stunningly new, it holds the readers interest throughout. Both books are well written and Norman clarifies a number of stories that have been either grossly exaggerated over the year. Lennon encyclopedia A to Z!!! This has to be one of the most in depth biographies I have ever read. From pre-birth to his untimely death, there isn't a detail missing. I like details but if you don't want all the nooks and crannies of the amazing John Lennon, you may desire a more abridged version. Thoroughly enjoyed this very lengthy book. Highly recommend.
This New York Times bestseller is an intimate look at the troubled genius who—along with Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr—changed the shape and sound of popular music forever. Phillip Norman, whose 1981 classic Shout! is considered the definitive biography of The Beatles, returns with John Lennon: The Life. From his early Liverpool days and heartbreaking childhood tragedies through the heady roller-coaster ride that was The Beatles and far beyond—his prolific post-“Fab Four” career, his turbulent marriage to Yoko Ono, his peace crusade, and his shocking death on the New York City streets—John Lennon: The Life is a remarkably fair and honest, utterly enthralling study of an achingly human rock legend.
