The Letters of John Lennon to be published by Weidenfeld & Nicolson
It has been announced that Weidenfeld & Nicolson, an imprint of the Orion Publishing Group, will publish the first ever collection of the letters of John Lennon in October 2012.
The publication of THE LENNON LETTERS in October 2012 will be an international event. For the first time, John Lennon’s widow, Yoko Ono, has given permission to publish a selection of his letters. They will be edited and introduced by Hunter Davies, the authorised biographer of the Beatles, who knew John Lennon 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 and collectors. Or they have been kept by the recipients, locked up safely.
For Hunter Davies it is proving to be a wonderful piece of detective work tracing many of these letters, which are arranged in chronological order, so that a narrative builds up, reflecting John’s life.
Hunter Davies has already tracked down and obtained copies of 200 Lennon letters and post cards but hopes that any fan, friend or collector who has, or has had, a Lennon letter will contact him. Email him at: johnlennonletters@hotmail.co.uk
