“Lennon’s complex, often sad and all-too-short life, has led Kane to write…a captivating memoir of Lennon--the man and icon… Here the controversial Lennon is tempered by the author’s portrayal of the good family man…, and the most intriguing stories describe Richard Nixon’s attempt to have Lennon deported…for his political radicalism.”
“You’ve read many books about Lennon the star or Lennon the celebrity. Larry Kane enables you to understand Lennon the Man.”
“Lennon Revealed will change the way you view Lennon’s legacy. Larry Kane explores uncharted territory in John’s life that gives the reader a fresh new perspective on the working of his mind and the people who most influenced him.”
“Although he claims to have written the song about himself, John Lennon was by no means a ’Nowhere Man.’ He was a complex person who happened to share his music, opinions, and pretty much everything else with the entire world. Larry Kane’s book does not just re-hash Walrus warhorse stories about Lennon, he provides a complete picture giving equal emphasis to the good, the bad and more about the man who started, and led the Fab Four. To put it bluntly, this book should be classified under ’Lennon 101.’”
“Lennon Revealed provides an honest, realistic look at John Lennon’s life, mind and emotions with fairness, genuine respect, and love for the man that has not been displayed in other biographies about him. It will create a shift in perception about the flip-side of who John was and what were his compassion and deep sensitivities. It’s a positive, human approach that John himself would deeply appreciate.”
“Drumming with the rhythm and authenticity of insider insight, this book will become the state-of-the-art work on John Lennon ’the man’. Written as if by a heartfelt, yet truthful friend, it chronicles a life overflowing equally with accomplishment, regret, hope and love. You will want to call Larry to express gratitude for his writing it.”
“In this moving and revelatory portrait, newsman Larry Kane, through the lens of their long friendship, casts a fine, journalistic eye upon the life of John Lennon-poet, provocateur, peace activist, and uber performer. What is observed is a great man who was neither demigod nor demon.just heart achingly human. Read the book. Play some the music. And just imagine.
“In brisk, entertaining prose, Kane, with a supporting cast of many Beatles associates, assesses the many faces of Lennon from a journalistic yet intensely personal perch.”
