Wow.  
I don't even know what to say.  I have read about what Beatle-people have said as they experienced her.  Pete Shotton being one.  I have rarely read a nice comment about her.  I like her as an artist, and I believe John loved her.  I would like to read her book, but I would put a lot of credibility in the book largely based on how she explains the morning when Cynthia got home to find Yoko sitting there in her house.  If Yoko said that morning was something she regrets or has an explanation of why she doesn't regret it, then I'd have faith in the rest of the book.  


John Lennon's widow Yoko Ono plans to break her silence and write an autobiography featuring her years with the former Beatle.
Now 76, Yoko Ono has said she will write an autobiography that will focus on her life with John Lennon. The book will be written over a period of several years.
Contactmusic.com reports Ono said, "I would love to do it. I just have to find the time.
"It will be my next book, which will be written in the next five years."
This is a change of mind for Ono, who had previously said she did not want to release a book about her time with Lennon because she did not want to cause any suffering for the families of people close to the group, including John's ex-wife Cynthia Lennon.
Apparently, Ono is eager to talk about her time with John and clear up the myths that surround the Beatles breakup. Ono has been accused of being a major factor in the band's demise.
Yoko is looking forward to revealing all about their affair and dispel the myths surrounding The Beatles' break up.

What a crock.  Has Yoko done anything EXCEPT perpetuate myths about Lennon since he died?  Thirty years of this air-brushed version of John Lennon as the Great Man who brought world peace to the universe.  Sure.

Yoko Ono always complained about how difficult it was being such a great artist living in the shadow of John Lennon.  But in the 30 years since Lennon's death has she released any artwork -- aside from her Lennon related stuff  -- that was of interest to anybody?
