Sinopsis	THE LYRICS - 1956 TO PRESENT Spanning seven decades - from his early days in Liverpool through the Beatles' legendary decade, to Wings and his long solo career - The Lyrics revolutionized the way artists write music, pairing the lyrics of 161 songs with intimate commentary and autobiographies about McCartney's life and music. Arranged alphabetically, these touching tales reveal the different circumstances in which the songs were written, how they came to be, and the places and extraordinary - but often delightfully ordinary - people who inspired them. Dozens of scenes recreate the working-class Liverpool of McCartney's youth, like the one that inspired Eleanor Rigby. McCartney also introduces us to his early literary influences, including Shakespeare, Lewis Carroll, and Allen Ginsberg, as well as Alan Durband, his beloved high school English teacher, and his mother, Mary, who passed away when he was just fourteen. Again, constant presences in The Lyrics are his writing partner, John Lennon, and his Golden Earth Girl, Linda Eastman McCartney: with his characteristic candor Paul describes how he met John at the Liverpool parish party in 1957; of the hitchhiking trip to England and then to Europe, with and without colleagues George Harrison and Ringo Starr; and how, at the end of the 1960s, they disbanded, in an event of global significance. Thus began an unparalleled second act, lasting more than fifty years, with the driving force of Linda and family life that inspired songs such as Maybe I'm Amazed, written immediately after the breakup of the Beatles, up to the 2012 ballad My Valentine, dedicated to his wife and partner Nancy Shevell McCartney. Edited and introduced by Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Paul Muldoon, and enriched by over a hundred images from McCartney's personal archives - including handwritten lyrics, memories and photographs - and seven new song commentaries, The Lyrics is a universal book, the definitive literary and visual testimony of one of the greatest authors of songs and ballads of all time.
