She lives in New York City.

Best known as singer-songwriter for the legendary Beatles, John Lennon was born in Liverpool, England. In 1969, Lennon married Yoko Ono and the two formed the Plastic Ono Band. Lennon was killed by a deranged fan outside his apartment building in New York on December 8, 1980.

Read an Excerpt

From Chapter 7: Dance

Dance Report

in the old east

there was a dance in which young girls

at the age of 12 of 13 wore special

intoxicating flowers inducing them to sleep

while standing. the girls went on

standing for hours while people

watched and appreciated the

delicate swaying of the

bodies.

Copyright © 1964, 1970, 1992, 1998 by Yoko Ono

From Chapter 6: Film

FILM SCRIPT 5

Ask the audience the following:

1) not to look at Rock Hudson but only Doris Day.

2) not to look at any round objects but only square

and angled objects — if you look at a round object

watch it until it becomes square and angled.

3) not to look at blue but only red — if blue comes

out close eyes or do something so you do not see,

if you saw it, then make believe that you have not seen

it, or punish yourself.

— from SIX FILM SCRIPTS BY YOKO ONO, Tokyo,

June 1964

    Best book I ever BURNED.

    I had anticipated this release for quite some time, and when it finally came, I had no idea what to expect. It was FANTASTIC! I don't want to ruin it for you but it contains instructions that are intended to make you think, and she succeeded. Definately for those who like to color outside the lines
