What was the title of John Lennon's second book?

John Lennon’s second book was A Spaniard in the Works.

Lennon’s first book, In His Own Write, appeared in 1964. Its success led to a follow-up, A Spaniard in the Works, published by Jonathan Cape on 24 June 1965. Like its predecessor, it combines absurd prose, distorted words, comic poems and Lennon’s drawings, reflecting his taste for surreal wordplay and parody.

The title itself is a pun on the expression “a spanner in the works.” Lennon wrote much of the material during 1964, including passages developed while travelling with the Beatles. George Harrison and others recalled Lennon experimenting with lines and ideas during a holiday in Tahiti, while the publisher later encouraged him to supply additional material.

The book is sometimes confused with Grapefruit, which is associated with Yoko Ono, or Skywriting by Word of Mouth, a posthumous collection published in 1986. The Beatles Anthology is also unrelated: it is a later Beatles history project, not Lennon’s second literary book. A Spaniard in the Works was the second of only two books Lennon published during his lifetime.
