PENSACOLA, Fla., Feb. 1, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- It has been twenty-five years since the legendary musician John Lennon was murdered on his way home from work. Since his death, millions of fans around the world dedicatedly remember his legendary works in music and continue to pay countless tributes to him even until now. While fans stick to their memories and idealism of the former Beatle, author Janet Celia Waters shares her personal experiences and unforgettable affair with the legend himself. To relive the magic of the 1970s, readers are encouraged to join Waters as she brings to life the legendary and human side of John Lennon with her compelling new book John Lennon's Girl: Based On A True Story.
John Lennon's Girl tells about the love affair between a rock star and a young girl. Back then, Waters was looking for love until one day, the famous musician came into her life. They met secretly, but out in the open -- in front of the family business. At first, the author couldn't be in love with Lennon because he was married and only came to see her once in a while unannounced. Every time she sees him, she gets advice from him about the other loves in her life. For many years, Lennon pursued the author until she gave in and became his mistress. Together, they watched each other grow, had stimulating conversations and even discussed Lennon's personal beliefs on world peace, space travel, the Bible, the war in Vietnam, and more. Along the way, Waters discovers that behind all the media hype, criticism, and rumors, John was knowledgeable, insightful, and was also a well-read person.
John Lennon's Girl is a lively book that readers will find very enjoyable, as it provides them many new and even surprising details about John Lennon, especially his lively personality and intelligence (which most Beatle books ignore). Told through the eyes of a little girl, a teenager, and a woman, readers and fans alike will learn how the author got involved with the rock star and even find closure concerning his untimely death. Not only that, the book also features an astonishing theory about why the Beatles really broke up. Janet Celia Waters' book is a must-have for readers and music fans.
