You can tell that it was an unfinished work, but as a John Lennon /Beatles fan, you probably will like it that way. It is sexually explicit in parts, mostly with the intention of grossing you out. Oh and whole paragraphs of words morphing into other words! The drawings are pretty funny. I like the ones with this little blob of a man pointing at things and calling it an exabitionist.
If you're an American, you'll probably get more of the political jokes this time.
If you get it for anything, get it for the mini autobiography in the front. And there's an interesting epilogue at the end by Yoko that I thought was sweet. I like the whole thing really, but don't expect it to be the same as the first two.
Ad hoc, ad loc, and quid pro quo! So little time! So much to know!
That autobiography, The Ballad Of John And Yoko (nothing to do with the song), is great. I'm glad Yoko had it all published.

I love John's poetry. Except for Strawberry Fields Forever . That song sucked.
"The best band? The Beatles. The most overrated band? The Beatles."

skye said:
I'm a bit surprised, Mr. Big. I was pretty sure you wouldn't since some of it makes less sense than SFF.
Ouch. I don't want K.
What surprise me more is the fact that SFF isn't poetry… Two different media.
I'd like to say "thank you" on behalf of the group and ourselves and I hope we passed the audition.
