David Sheff Knihy

Posledný veľký rozhovor s Johnom Lennonom a Yoko Ono. V čase tohto veľkého rozhovoru mal John Lennon za sebou už svoje najbúrlivejšie obdobie, pokusy o zmier s ostatnými bývalými členmi skupiny Beatles, aj nevšednú rolu „muža v domácnosti“. So svojou povestnou sebaistotou v ňom vyjadruje svoje najzrelšie a najúprimnejšie názory, ktoré aj dnes dokážu ľudí pre svoju inakosť zaujať. Hovorí o bývalých členoch Beatles, o hudbe všeobecne, o konvenciách v spoločnosti, či o svojom postoji k autoritám, politike a náboženstvu. Cez svoje nefalšované reakcie a autorove opisy situácií, v ktorých rozhovor postupne vznikal, tak dostáva čitateľ jedinečný a komplexný pohľad do života Johna Lennona tesne pred jeho smrťou v decembri 1980.
