A Spaniard in the Works by John Lennon

A Spaniard in the Works by John Lennon

Following the incredible success of his first book, In His Own Write, John Lennon's second collection of stories, drawings and poems is just as witty, whimsical and wonderful as his debut. First published in 1965 it is now back in print, looking just as it did when it first appeared half a century ago. CONTENTS A Spaniard in the Works The Fat Budgie Snore Wife and some Several Dwarts The Singularge Experience of Miss Anne Duffield The Faulty Bagnose We must not forget the General Erection Benjaman Distasteful The Wumberlog (or The Magic Dog) Araminta Ditch Cassandle The National Health Cow Readers Lettuce Silly Norman Mr. Boris Morris Bernice's Sheep Last Will and Testicle Our Dad I Believe, Boot . . .

It owes something to Edward Lear's nonsense books, but from there on in Lennon is on his own. . Zany, offbeat, and illustrated by his grotesque spidery pen. It jolts the reader into gusts of laughter * * GUARDIAN * *
Irresistible . . . the drawings are marvellous * * SUNDAY TELEGRAPH * *

John Lennon is one of the most iconic figures of the twentieth century, a musician, singer and songwriter of extraordinary popularity and influence who was tragically murdered in December 1980. Whilst the Beatles, the band with which he is most associated, only existed for eight years they transformed the face and sound of the Sixties and their body of work is the most listened to and covered in the history of popular music.
