Helpful Score: 1

An extensive review of John's life, but I liked what I read regarding this book in 'The Beatles'biography by Bob Spitz - "a controversial and discredited biography...I found it unreadable and irresponsible...". I'm sure there's truth mixed in the pages of this book, but information that stated that Lennon had multiple personality disorder, was developmentally /physically afflicted and uncoordinated (excuse me, wasn't he quite a guitarist...) was hard to swallow. Lennon was certainly a complicated person, but this book dealt way too much with his faults, real, imagined, or somewhere in-between. There are many more balanced books out there that don't try to pulverize his life.
