Author Description

The Beatles Clichés - Whether you love them or hate them, you've heard them all... "The Rolling Stones were the real rebels", "Sgt Pepper's is the best Beatles album", "Yoko and Linda were responsible for the separation", and many more. Very few authors have taken a simple look at what people believe about The Beatles, beyond the image we all know: this book takes a look at facts, and aims to sort out history from mythology. Starting from what everyone knows, or what everyone assumes they know, it concentrates on the main episodes of their story, often in the Beatles' own words, and review their careers, for better or for worse. Erick Falc'her-Poyroux is a Senior Lecturer at the University of Nantes, France, where he is the head of the language department in the graduate school of engineering.
