The first front endpaper contains a small mark and "9/87" date in blue/green marker. "Marvelous, delightful reading and for Lennon fans a must." - Publishers Weekly. "John Lennon up close - and in full force! Written during Yoko's pregnancy with Sean, John Lennon had always planned to publish Skywriting By Word of Mouth. It was a wish that seemed to end with his assassination in 1980 and the theft of the book from the Lennons' home in 1982. When it was recovered and first published in 1986, Skywriting became an immediate bestseller around the world. Filled with Lennon's extraordinary creative powers and tremendous charm, and lavishly illustrated with his own drawings, Skywriting also includes Lennon's only autobiograhy, as well as "Two Virgins," written when the public discovered he and Yoko were living together as man and woman. It is a book with his spirit on every page - a spirit the world needs to remember." "It's no wonder Lennon's fans grow more in love with him as time goes by.his great influence on popular music makes him impossible to forget. So does this book." - Houston Chronicle. "A master of verbal wit.only Edward Lear and James Joyce could do it better." - Champaign (Ill.) News-Gazette "Lennon has a playful say with words, toying with them, tossing in ideas, and stringing them together in sentences that ring as true as his finest songs." Riverside (Ga.) Press-Enterprise. Seller Inventory # 001270
