"Just two months before John Lennon was shot on December 8, 1980, he and his wife, Yoko Ono, had completed what would become the most exhaustive and thorough interview sessions of his life. The couple had been retired from public life for five years, and had reemerged in a burst of creativity to record some new music - and with much to say. It was during these long sessions with Playboy interviewer David Sheff that Lennon decided to review his personal and professional life in full - often movingly, sometimes bitingly, and always honestly. The magazine version of the interviews was on the newstands as the tragedy took place in the archway of the Lennons' apartment building. Playboy's twenty million readers therefore had the inteview in their hands when the news was announced and durring the days of vigil and remembrance that followed. As Los Angeles Times art editor Charles Champlin would later write, "David Sheff's sympathetic questions evoked so much of the Beatle past and of Lennon's intellectual past and present and future plans that the interview would hardly have been less engrossing and important even if it were not illuminated by tragedy." But even though Playboy's interviews are noted for their length, only a portion of the over twenty hours of conversation could be published that month. There remained many more hours of unpullished thoughts, memories, and insights from th brilliant mind that helped to shape a generation. These have now been transcribed and integrated into the original magazine interview to provide readers with what is undoubedly the autobiography Lennon would never write. Those close to Lennon called th magazine interview his "final testament," so this book represents perhaps the "complete testament," as nearly two-thirds of the material here has never been published before. In his own words, Lennon thrashes out his feelings about the Beatles, recalls the insanity of sex and drugs and hero worship during the Sixties, becomes lyrical about the love and tranquility of his family life, triggers his own choked memories of his mother and his childhood, analyzes the excitement about the future and a life that "begins at forty," and, for the first time, comments on virtually every song he wrote with and without Paul McCartney. Throughout, Yoko Ono also speaks movingly about what it was like to be the one accused of breaking up the Beatles, about her own life and work since, and about the rigors of being married to a legend. For those who loved John Lennon, and for those curious about his life and his art, this is the one, indispensable source book." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.
