Told in revelatory detail, this is the definitive exploration of
the writing, recording and release of John Lennon’s celebrated
fourth solo album Mind Games. Described by Yoko Ono as ‘ahead of
its time’, Mind Games is a breakthrough album from John Lennon in
which he employs a Plastic Ono Band comprising the cream of the
crop of New York session musicians – a fan favourite that remains a
cult classic ever since its first release on 29 October 1973. This
insightful and beautiful book presents handwritten lyrics, letters
and artworks by Lennon and Ono, and previously unseen photography
alongside their firsthand commentary about the lyrics, songs and
album artwork, as well as contributions from the musicians,
friends, engineers and key figures involved in the making of this
landmark album.Mind Games was the product of an exceptionally
turbulent time for the Lennons. While Nixon and Hoover were
attempting to have Lennon deported, John and Yoko endured endless
litigations, and as the popular press turned on them once again,
they bravely rose above it all, continuing their campaigns for
non-violent peaceful protest to end the war in Vietnam and for
equal rights for women. It was also an exciting time, when they
both re-embraced mysticism and magical thinking.In this sumptuous
volume, text and images from the key players are woven together to
reveal not only the details behind the creation, recording and
release of this groundbreaking commercial and skilfully crafted
recording, but also to shed new light on a period of transformation
and experimentation for Lennon and Ono. Publication of this volume
will coincide with extensive publicity surrounding the release of
an exceptional, completely remixed and reissued 6 x CD / 2 x BluRay
digital edition of Mind Games, together with two deluxe Mind Games
boxsets, bringing the album to a new generation of listeners.

Aelin Galathynius sa zaprisahala, že zachráni svoj ľud, aj keď
cena, ktorú za to treba zaplatiť, je nepredstaviteľne vysoká. Keď
ju kráľovná férov Maeve uväzní v starodávnej železnej truhle a
niekoľko mesiacov mučí, jedinou nádejou na prežitie je len Aelinina
ohnivá vôľa a strašná istota, že ak ju Maeve zlomí, bude to
znamenať skazu pre jej milovaných. S každým ďalším dňom však jej
pevné odhodlanie nepoddať sa čoraz viac slabne... Kým je Aelin v
zajatí, jej priateľov a spojencov osud zaveje na všetky svetové
strany. Niektoré putá sa posilnia, iné sa spretŕhajú naveky. A keď
sa ich cesty znovu spoja, všetci musia bojovať, ak Erilea nemá
padnúť. V napínavom záverečnom diele svetového bestselleru od Sarah
J. Maas bude musieť Aelin zviesť posledný, najťažší boj pre
záchranu seba samej – a pre prísľub lepšieho sveta.
