No Time for Fussing and Fighting
John
Lennon had the most fascinating life of any ex-Beatle, despite it being so much
shorter. In a succession of distinct if not exclusive public identities, he
went from blissful dreamer to tortured artist to committed radical to
party-hearty studio rat and finally bread-baking papa. Much of that time he was
in the company of his lover Yoko Ono, a conceptual artist who saw in John’s
celebrity an opportunity to advance big ideas and challenge stereotypes.
