Reviews

'Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther king are great examples of fantastic nonviolents who died violently. I can never work that out. We're pacifists, but I'm not sure what it means when you're such a pacifist that you get shot. I can never understand that.' John Lennon With moments of haunting prescience, this interview is 'often amusing, constantly pertinent and, in places, horribly sobering.' (MOJO)
