Title: The ugly truth about an ex-mystic who blew it big-time
Review: Lennon reminds me of no-one so much as Charley Gordon, the protagonist of FLOWERS FOR ALGERNON. Lennon started out as a banality-mongering showbiz butthole. But then LSD transformed him into a mystic. And then he descended back into banality and showbiz buttholery. And needless to say, there were plenty of other lysergically-transformed people who underwent the same scenario. Lennon's worst trait was his repulsive solipsistic self-absorption. My favorite quote from Goldman is in regard to George Harrison's wife and her reaction to LSD: "While Cynthia struggled to throw off the drug, Patti lay down and snuggled with her cat, worried only about how she would explain the next day that she was now a different person."
