For ten years I shared my life with a man who
          became a legend in his lifetime. When the
          Beatles formed and went on to delight and
    astound the world I was by John's side, sharing
       the highs and lows of his public and private
            lives. It was a time when he was at his
            creative best, a time when he loved his
                            family and the Beatles.

       John was an extraordinary man - infuriating,
      lovable, sometimes cruel, witty, talented and
           needy. I have always loved him and never
     stopped grieving for him. That's why I want to
  tell the story of the John I knew. He believed in
             the truth and would want nothing less.

Growing up as John Lennon's son has been a rocky
path. He was a great talent, a remarkable man who
stood for love and peace in the world, but to me he
was the father I loved and longed for in his many
absences. Mum was his first love--she was the
one who held us together through it all.



I started collecting these personal pieces
because I felt they belonged back in our family.
This collection represents something of great
importance to me, as it is part of our history.
