Review Digest

“A magisterial biography… Thomson’s book adds something new to this conversation…” – Chicago Tribune
“Do we need another book on the Beatles? In this case, definitely. Not just because it’s a juicy story, but because Harrison’s life was such an intriguing study in the interplay of fame, creativity and happiness” – San Francisco Chronicle
“Fans of either the Beatles or Harrison the solo artist will find much to relish in this thorough and accessible account” – Library Journal (Starred review)
“The book is thoroughly entertaining, and it fills a real gap in the available literature about one of rock’s most important musicians. I seriously doubt Harrison will get any better treatment anytime soon.” – The Agit Reader
“Re-examines the Quiet One’s remarkable life” – New York Post
“The life and times of George Harrison, thoroughly examined by noted biographer Graeme Thomson, reveals the former Beatle’s psyche, examined through in-depth interviews and dogged research. This is no pandering publication; it gets into the good, the bad, and the ugly, painting Harrison as a human being instead of just a pillar of pop culture.” – Status Magazine
“An excellent biography” – MOJO
“An insightful, rigorous and beautifully written atomisation of the youngest Beatle’s life.” – The National
“Brings new colour and understanding to his story. A must for George fans.” – Hot Press
“Thomson’s excellent biography is readable, informative and, most importantly, clear-eyed… A well-written and extremely entertaining book.” – Classic Rock “A gripping account of the complex, fascinating and richly eccentric life of the supposedly ‘quiet’ Beatle” – Saga
“Thomson is especially compelling in his illumination of Harrison’s inner life, his robust spirituality, and his deep love of Indian culture. A must for all Beatles collections and for fans of the quiet man himself.” —Booklist (Starred Review)
“Succeeds effortlessly in realising Harrison’s complex personality, and his various personal and career travails.” – Sunday Business Post




I really appreciate how the Library Journal review highlights the balance between Harrison the Beatle and Harrison the solo artist—that’s the kind of scope I’m hoping for. The Chicago Tribune quote seals it for me, this sounds like a biography that earns its place on the shelf.
