Hunter Davies: The Lennon Letters, V&A Dec 3


V&A Evening Talk: 
19.00 – 20.00 (talk); 
20.00 – 20.45 (refreshments) 
£15 (including wine reception) 


Hunter Davies, the only authorised biographer of The Beatles, knew John Lennon well, and has edited the first-ever collection of John’s letters, introducing each one and setting it in the context of its author’s life.

John wrote letters and postcards all of his life; to his friends, family, strangers, newspapers, lawyers and the laundry – most of which were funny, informative, campaigning, wise, mad, poetic, anguished and sometimes heartbreaking. Hunter will discuss his latest publication and show a short film that was made when he was producing The Beatles book back in the 1960s.

When:
Mon 3 December 2012 19:00

Where:
The Lydia & Manfred Gorvy Lecture Theatre
