Know the legend through ‘Fab: An Intimate Life of Paul McCertney’

Although many biographies have been written about Paul McCertney by various authors, there seems to be, still more to know about this legend. Howard Sournes, tunes in to cater to this public greed to devour the former Beatle while maintaining the perfect quotient of professionalism and unbiased tone. You can visit Greatess to read more such books.


The book takes us through the school days of McCertney, the formation of the band, the times when the Beatles performed together, the shows in Germany and a depiction of his personal life after the fall of the band with Linda and the children.

The author has deftly dealt with the incidents of drug addiction and litigations. While the details have been narrated, no personal perspectives have been cited. To provide the readers with an authentic insight, Sournes interacted with the friends and associates of McCertney. The book quotes the views of people like David Puttnam, Len Murray, Ravi Shankar, John Tavener, Carla Lane. On the other hand, there had also been interactions with people like Ken Dodd, Jeffrey Archer and Bruce Forsyth who had not revealed anything interesting regarding their association with the legend. In addition to referring to the original research on the legend’s life, Sournes had conducted over two hundred interviews to get the facts right before he finally wrote the book.

Fab presents an exhaustive portrait of Paul McCertney. The real man behind the tranquil public image has been unveiled. His passion, ambition, ruthlessness and above all the inherent talent as a musician have all been presented well. The book also mentions about his romantic pursuits, marriages, family disputes and controversies related to his relationships with fellow members of Beatles.
