Beskrivning
A tour-de-force graphic novel biography of Yoko Ono and John Lennon—their turbulent romance, dynamic creative partnership, and their final days together recording their last, Grammy Award–winning album, Double Fantasy“A dream you dream alone is only a dream. A dream you dream together is reality.” —Yoko OnoLong dismissed by Beatles fans as a “dragon lady” or “the woman who broke up the Beatles,” Yoko Ono’s work and legacy has often been viewed as parallel, if not separate to John Lennon’s.Double Fantasy challenges that perception, chronicling the complicated, fascinating, and dramatic period between 1968 and 1980 when John Lennon left the Beatles, redefined himself, disappeared from the public to raise his son Sean with Yoko Ono—by telling their story from both Yoko and John’s perspective.In this incredible journey through the personal and creative lives of two of the most influential artists of all time, Double Fantasy argues—at times in John’s own words—that Yoko was not tangential to the process of making “John Lennon’s last album,” but rather his creative equal, constantly challenging him to make better, more personal work.Viscerally presented in the graphic novel format, author Geoff Edgers and artist Molly Murakami take readers behind the scenes of one of the most complicated, fruitful, and misunderstood musical partnerships in history, drawing from unparalleled access and new reporting to bring this story to life.
