JOHN LENNON LETTERS BOOK

JOHN LENNON LETTERS BOOK.

A lifetime of letters, collected for the first time, from the legendary musician and songwriter.

John Lennon is one of the world's greatest-ever songwriters. Now, his letters have been collected and published, illuminating as never before the intimate side of a private genius.

Hunter Davies, author of the only authorized biography of The Beatles, has tracked down almost three hundred of Lennon's letters and postcards - to relations, friends, fans, strangers, lovers and even to the laundry. Some of the letters are tender, informative, funny, angry and abusive, and some are simply heart-breaking - from his earliest surviving thank-you note, written when he was ten, to his last scribbled autograph given on 8 December 1980, the day he was shot, aged forty.
