There is so much that I have never said, so many incidents I have never spoken of and so many feelings I have never expressed: great love on one hand; pain, torment, and humiliation on the other. Only I know what really happened between us, why we stayed together, why we parted, and the price I have paid for being John's wife. <b>--From the Introduction</b><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Lennon's eyewitness testimony vividly captures the time and place and the characters . . . her portrait of John is loving but candid." --<i>Washington Post</i> <p/>"A welcome window into a period that's typically narrated at breakneck pace, [providing] a gentle reminder that John Lennon was a human being . . . before he was a piece of history." --<i>Detroit Free Press</i> <p/>"[Cynthia Lennon's] portrait reveals an immensely talented and driven man who was capable of great passion, affection, and loyalty, but whose inability to handle confrontation and tendency toward flight from painful realities led him to abandon his family when the going got tough." --<i>Buffalo News</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Cynthia Lennon was born in Blackpool, England, in 1939.
