Description
30 years after their acrimonious split, the Beatles continue to be the most influential and best-loved band the world has ever seen. Yet despite all that has been written about them, few have managed to get behind the public facade of the Fab Four and write the truth about the world's most popular band. No one knows more about their secret world than Geoffrey Giuliano. For the first time Geoffrey has brought together exclusive interviews with the band's inner circle to create the most vivid and sensational portrait of the band ever published. From the sexual abuse suffered by John Lennon at the hands of his uncle as a boy, to Paul McCartney's stormy relationship with his family. From the serial adultery of band members with each other's wives, to the fearsome addictions and personal demons that pursued each member after the Beatles broke up. This is a unique and essential portrait of the band who shook the world like no other. It will change the way we see the Beatles forever.
