'SKYWRITING BY WORD OF MOUTH' is a collection of Lennon's fiction and non-fictionillustrated by his own drawings written between 1968 and 1979 and never before published. The fiction is a parody of every kind of writingwith all the wit and literary swiftnessthe playfulnessthe iconoclasmthe sexual explicitness and the sheer vitality that made the earlier books such a joy to read.In 'The Ballad of John and Yoko'Lennon reflects upon his first meeting with Yokothe break-up of the Beatleshis persecution by the US and UK authorities and his adventures with the American underground. Completing this collection are 'An Alphabet' and 'Two Virgins' the latter written in 1968when the public discovered that John and Yoko were living together as man and wife.

The author's first book for children.<br />Orkney has been described as a land where the lives of living people turn into legend.George Mackay Brown elaborates this idea in his introduction to a collection of its tales: 'In a small communityenclosed by sea and sky and fieldsit is possible to see man's life as a whole.It has a clear outlineand becomes larger than life.' The islander's love of legends extended beyond a natural curiosity about the lives of their neighbours - the lairdthe ministersmugglers and lovers - and the many mysterious phenomena around them - standing stonesgreen knowesthe scree-littered hills of Hoy.Into more elemental regions their gift for story-making led themtheir imaginations being challenged alike by the taste of the seathe connection bewteen music and corn and deaththe seal's particular love of music. Beside the fish-oil lampsthrough the winter evenings of many centuries the Orkney people developed their unique artto which George Mackay Brown - master storytellerpoetand himself a native of Orkney - now pays tribute in a language as powerful and haunting as the landscape which was the source of its inspiration.
