The Lennon Companion pg 39 - 57

The author tells environment around the Beatles, four young boys, changed the world. When the Beatles became famouse, the situation around them was extremly changing. TV news were telling about every little thing that they did. Not only news but queen mentioned about them and also she was interested in their hair. The phenomenon they made became culture in England. Especially youth were getting mad. They were satisfied with their behavior, fasion and looks. The Beatles were national idol at that time.
At that time, the author said John Lennon will not speak when he was interviewee without an appointment. He was sick of such a interview. The author explains lunch John Lennon had. also Brian Epstein, who was a manager of the Beatles, talked to the author. He gives explanation about that lunch.
The author explains one their song, A Hard Days Night. He recognized they are only one because they meant effectively great aspects when he listened that song.

Opinion
The Beatles were only band that were not only idol but also artist. I enjoy reading this book because it's going to reveal John Lennon's behavior, words, and people around him. I can know how they were famous and popular. They had felt pain that can't understand by little people especailly Lennon because they became national idol suddenly.
