Until now, the true story of John Lennon's childhood has never been
told. John's sister Julia has herself been on a personal journey
that has made it possible only now to reveal the full extent of the
pain and difficulties - as well as the happier times - living
inside John Lennon's family brought. Julia reveals the various
strong, self-willed and selfish women who surrounded John as he
grew up. John was removed from his mother at the age of 5 to live
with his Aunt Mimi, and here Julia shows for the first time the
cruelty of this decision - to both mother and son, she sheds a new
light on his upbringing with Mimi which is often at dramatic odds
with the accepted tale. John's frequent visits to his mother and
sisters gave him the liveliness, freedom and love he sought and
allowed him to develop his musical talents. The tragic death of
their mother, knocked down outside Aunt Mimi's house by a speeding
car when John was 17, meant that life for him and his sisters would
never be the same again.Poignant, raw and beautifully written,
Imagine This casts John Lennon's life in a new light and reveals
the source of his emotional fragility and musical genius. It is
also one family's extraordinary story of how it dealt with fame and
tragedy beyond all imagining.
