書籍簡介

約翰?列儂（John Lennon）和甲殼蟲樂隊一起取得了超越了音樂人身份的超級明星的地位。“我們是那裏優秀的樂隊，”他説，“沒人比得上我們。”

1980年夏天，列儂與一家唱片公司簽約，並聘請了一名製作人來招募優秀的音樂人，準備時隔多年錄製新音樂。當列儂快馬加鞭地完成了《(Just Like) Starting Over》時，他們都對列儂肅然起敬。列儂幾乎立刻就回到了他的狀態，創作了他自《Imagine》後又一紅火的歌曲。

《列儂的日子》（The Last Days of John Lennon）講述了約翰?列儂人生與事業的精彩故事，從他早期的日子，歌曲到他人生的後幾秒鐘。它講述了有史以來深刻的搖滾樂天才的故事，以及馬克?大衞?查普曼（Mark David Chapman）----一個原本籍籍無名，卻把列儂從我們身邊帶來的人的故事。通過對列儂的朋友和同事——包括保羅?麥卡特尼（Paul McCartney）的專訪，這本書講述了一個關於兩個改變歷史的人的真實故事。一箇中的一個用他不可磨滅的歌曲，直到今天依然豐富着我們的生活；而另一個扣動了扳機，為這首美妙的音樂畫下了休止符。

Discover one of the greatest true crime stories in music history, as only James Patterson can tell it. With the Beatles, John Lennon surpasses his youthful dreams, achieving a level of superstardom that defies classification. "We were the best bloody band there was," he says. "There was nobody to touch us." Nobody except the original nowhere man, Mark David Chapman. Chapman once worshipped his idols from afar--but now harbors grudges against those, like Lennon, whom he feels betrayed him. He's convinced Lennon has misled fans with his message of hope and peace. And Chapman's not staying away any longer.

By the summer of 1980, Lennon is recording new music for the first time in years, energized and ready for it to be "(Just Like) Starting Over." He can't wait to show the world what he will do.

Neither can Chapman, who quits his security job and boards a flight to New York, a handgun and bullets stowed in his luggage.

The greatest true-crime story in music history, as only James Patterson can tell it. Enriched by exclusive interviews with Lennon's friends and associates, including Paul McCartney, The Last Days of John Lennon is the thrilling true story of two men who changed history: One whose indelible songs enliven our world to this day--and the other who ended the beautiful music with five pulls of a trigger.
