In His Own Write and a Spaniard in the Works - Hardcover

"In His Own Write features the same sort of surreal turns of phrase that insinuated themselves into late-period Beatles classics such as 'Come Together' and 'Strawberry Fields Forever.'"
--San Francisco Chronicle

"Worth the attention of anyone who fears for the impoverishment of the English language and the British imagination."
--The Times Literary Supplement

"[Features] a wit and love of words that recall[s] Joyce and fanciful drawings some compare to Thurber."
--Hartford Courant (Connecticut)

"A quirky, funny collection of stories, poems and drawings."
--The New York Times

"Lunatic humor. . . Zany, offbeat, and illustrated by his grotesque and spidery pen. It jolts the reader into gusts of laughter."
--The Guardian

"Fascinating. . . It goes down like pure whimsy and then back-kicks like a sick mule."
--The Sunday Times

"Bewitching."
--USA Today

"Lennon's marvelously clever In His Own Write was the surprise literary sensation of 1964....you get Lennon's biting humor and brilliant puns: Lewis Carroll as rock star."
--Tampa Tribune
