Book Description
Stories full of suggestion, inspired by psychedelic visions and surreal encounters. Themes, situations and varied characters meet and confront: so we can go out to dinner with Michelle Pfeiffer, play poker with Jesus Christ and Charles Bukowski, suffocate ourselves with the monotony that we impose on ourselves. Jacopo teaches us that the Holy Spirit has the face of Bruce Springsteen and that all myths exist to be broken. What remains is a great and concrete desire that we cry out loud to the universe: to be reborn and be Yoko Ono, to know how it feels to steal John Lennon from the Beatles. The book is beautified by the illustrations of Marino D'Amore.

Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 217
Book Description
“It’s nearly 50 years ago that my book of conceptual instructions Grapefruit was first published. In these pages I’m picking up where I left off. After each day of sharing the instructions you should feel free to question, discuss, and/or report what your mind tells you. I’m just planting the seeds. Have fun.” —Yoko Ono Legendary avant-garde icon Yoko Ono has inspired generations of artists and performers. In Acorn, she offers enchanting and thought-provoking exercises that open our eyes—and all of our senses—to more creative and mindful ways of relating to ourselves, each other, and the planet we cohabit. Throughout this beautifully designed book are 100 black-and-white line drawings by Yoko. Like this legendary woman herself, the book is wildly original, stimulating, and hard to label: Call it purposeful play, call it brain poetry, call it guided motivation, call it Zen-like incantations, call it whatever you want. But read it. Acorn may change the way you experience the world.

Skywriting by Word of Mouth
Author: John Lennon
Publisher: Harper Collins
ISBN: 0062319868
Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 145
Book Description
John Lennon wrote Skywriting by Word of Mouth, an impressive collection of writings and drawings, during Yoko Ono's pregnancy with Sean, and always planned to have it published. The book's publication was a wish that seemed to end with Lennon's assassination in 1980 and the theft of the manuscript from the Lennons' home in 1982. When it was recovered and first published in 1986, Skywriting received immediate critical and popular acclaim. Filled with Lennon's extraordinary creative powers and lavishly illustrated with his own drawings, the collection reveals his fertile creative spirit up close and in full force. Included in Skywriting are "Two Virgins," written when the public learned that John and Yoko were living together as husband and wife, and John's only autobiography, "The Ballad of John and Yoko." In addition there are notes on his falling in love with Yoko, the breakup of the Beatles, his persecution by U.S. authorities, and his withdrawal from public life. This is a book with John Lennon's spirit on every page—a spirit the world needs to remember.

Who Could Ask for More?
Author: Chris Gregory
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 0955751209
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 304
Book Description
Who Could Ask For More is both an in-depth study of The Beatles' songs and an often oblique commentary on their life and times. Identifying the constant fear of an imminent nuclear holocaust as the spark for the huge social changes of the decade, Chris Gregory seeks to 'reclaim' The Beatles from the tendency to position them within a fake 'sixties nostalgia' industry. Combining analysis of their words and music with fictionalised sequences depicting key episodes in their career, the book provides a unique insight into an artistic and cultural phenomenon whose effects still resonate strongly many decades after the group broke up. The extraordinary evolution of their art is discussed in relation to the musical context of their day, with particular emphasis on the influence of 50s rock and roll and 60s soul music.
