THE JOHN LENNON LETTERS

John Lennon's true personality comes through in this book. His quirky, fun and friendly style of writing, as well as Hunter Davies' editing, makes this one of my favorites. Letters from Rishikesh are especially evocative of the hippies' era of the 60s.

It's the perfect book for all the Lennon fans out there. Gift it to your loved ones if they're fans of Lennon. There's no alternative gift that would make a fan happier!

Good insight into the man

E' un must per un vero fan di John Lennon, contiene moltissime delle sue lettere dagli inizi con i Beatles fino a pochi giorni prima della sua morte. Questa è l'edizione inglese arrivata in tempi brevissimi

Enjoyed this book

This book is a treasure trove of showing Joh's thoughts and creative actions and reactions to the life that was going on around him. As I'm also very big on In His Own Write and A Spaniard In The Works, this volume of letters starting from his youth up till the end share the singular and creative nature of these two masterworks. (Skywriting By Word Of Mouth doesn't succeed in scaling the heights of his earlier two books, but there still a number of fine pages in this third volume of his writings that still make the book worthwhile.) As you'd expect, the large array of letters show him in all the various modes of being that John possessed, including passion, humour, whimsy, non sequitur, caring, anger, inventive syntax etc. And special mention must be given to Hunter Davies, whose design and painstaking work to collect and present a lifetime of letters is a great homage to John. This is one of the coolest offerings from the vast sea of Beatles books. Highly recommended!

Pour tous les inconditionnels de Lennon c'est un vrais régal de lire ses lettres. A l'époque il n'y avait pas d'ordis pas de Iphone et autre...c'était totalement cool! C'est lui ses réflections sa vie intérieure.

Lo siento pero no puedo opinar sobre el libro porqué no era para mi y no lo he leído....ni lo leeré. Solamente lo ojeé.
