Summary

This lyrical biography explores the life and art of Yoko Ono, from her childhood haiku to her avant-garde visual art and experimental music. An outcast throughout most of her life, and misunderstood by every group she was supposed to belong to, Yoko always followed her own unique vision to create art that was ahead of its time and would later be celebrated. Her focus remained on being an artist, even when the rest of world saw her only as the wife of John Lennon. Yoko Ono's moving story will inspire any young adult who has ever felt like an outsider, or who is developing or questioning ideas about being an artist, to follow their dreams and find beauty in all that surrounds them.

Wonderful insight

Illuminating to listen to a biography of an inspirational artist. A sadly overlooked talent for many years and now receiving some deserved recognition. A true human being and the World would be a better place if there where more like her. Also, Yoko and John's relationship is the greatest modern love story ever told and is on a certain level of energy that we should all aim for.
