John Lennon, one of the greatest legends of the 20th century, was once just John, a cheerful, careless student and aspiring musician with no special life prospects. It was then, in the late 1950s, that he fell in love with a fellow student named Cynthia, who later became his wife and the mother of his son Julian. For ten years, Cynthia Lennon, for whom the great Beatles were and remain just “guys,” gave John moral support, warmth and unconditional devotion, no matter how the violent storm of Beatlemania shook the whole world and their family life. In 1968, he left for Yoko Ono. This book is a story of love and separation, told by an ordinary woman, kind and sensible, who, despite all the shocks and disappointments, carefully keeps in her heart the memory of her husband John.
