Don't let the Giuliano association scare you. Only Julia's voice comes through as if she's sitting right next to you carrying on a conversation. She's straightforward and unpolished as you would expect her to be. This book is quite different from most Beatles or John Lennon books. It's written from a sisterly viewpoint, and relates details of John's years growing up between the two households, the beginnings of fame, Beatlemania, and his New York years. There were three Johns - the witty Beatle, the John who Yoko spun her web around, and the real one. This book gives a good peak at the real John, before his image was reworked and remade. Quite an interesting read.
