John Lennon was a writer as well as a musician. It was entirely natural for him to put pen to paper whenever he had an idea, a thought, a reaction or a desire to communicate. He lived
- & died
- in an age before emails & texts. Pen & ink was what he turned to. John wrote letters & postcards all of his life; to his friends, family, strangers, newspapers, organisations, lawyers & the laundry
- most of which were funny, informative, campaigning, wise, mad, poetic, anguished & sometimes heartbreaking. For the first time, John's widow, Yoko Ono, has given permission to publish a collection of his letters. The Editor is the Beatles' official biographer, Hunter Davies, who knew John well. John's letters are in a way something of a mystery
- where are they all? Over the years many have come up at auction, then sold to dealers & collectors. Or they have been kept by the recipients, locked up safely. It has been a wonderful piece of detective work tracing many of these 250 letters, postcards & notes, which are arranged in chronological order, so that a narrative builds up, reflecting John's life. It will be visual
- in a sense that many of the letters are reproduced as they were, in his handwriting or typing, plus the odd cartoon or doodle. THE JOHN LENNON LETTERS is fundamentally a book to read & study, providing a unique insight into the mind of one of the great figures of our times. John's letters are read by Christopher Eccleston. Christopher Eccleston is an English actor who has had a hugely successful career in film, TV & on stage. His regular appearance on the TV series, Cracker, in 1993 brought him recognition & he went on to star along side such actresses as Nicole Kidman & Cate Blanchett.

R.C. Sherriff, author of Journeys End, the most famous play of the Great War, saw all his frontline service with the 9th Battalion East Surrey Regiment.

This intense experience profoundly affected his writing &, through his play, it continues to have a powerful influence on our understanding of the conflict.

Yet the story of his battalion has never been told in full until now. In The Journeys End Battalion, Michael Lucas gives a vivid account of its history. Using official & unofficial sources, diaries, letters, & British & German wartime records, he describes the individuals who served in it & the operations they took part in.

He identifies the inspiration for Journeys End & considers how Sherriff delved into his experiences & those of his fellow soldiers in order to create his drama.

So not only does the book shed new light on the wartime career of R.C. Sherriff, but it is a valuable record of the operation of a British battalion on the Western Front during the Great War.
