When Beatlemania exploded across the globe in early 1964, the world assumed it understood John Lennon. He was the sardonic rhythm guitarist, the leader of the mop-top quartet, and the razor-tongued Liverpudlian who instructed the royal box at the Prince of Wales Theatre to “rattle your jewelry.” Yet in March 1964, at the absolute zenith of the band’s whirlwind, Lennon exploded the pop-star blueprint by publishing In His Own Write—a surreal volume of grotesque poems, pun-drenched vignettes, and squiggly, Thurber-esque line drawings.

An affordable volume of Lennon's seminal fiction is available at Amazon:
