Über diesen Titel

A personal and revealing look at the last ten years of John Lennon’s life and his partnership with Yoko Ono, written by the friend who knew them best

In 1972, Elliot Mintz installed a red light in his bedroom in Laurel Canyon. When it started flashing, it meant that either John Lennon or Yoko Ono—or sometimes both—were calling him. Which they did almost every day for nearly ten years, engaging Mintz in hours-long late-night phone conversations that all but consumed him for the better part of a decade.

In We All Shine On, Mintz—a former radio and television host in Los Angeles—recounts the story of how their unlikely friendship began and where it led him over the years, revealing the ups and downs of a wild, touching, heartbreaking, and sometimes shocking relationship. Mintz takes readers inside John and Yoko’s inner sanctums, including their expansive seventh-floor apartment in New York’s fabled Dakota building, where Mintz was something of a semipermanent fixture, ultimately becoming the Lennons' closest and most trusted confidant. Mintz was with John and Yoko through creative highs, relationship and private challenges, fascinating interactions with the other former Beatles, and the happiest moment of their lives together, the birth of their son, Sean. He was also by Yoko’s side during the aftermath of John’s assassination on the doorstep of the Dakota—not merely a witness to it all, but a key figure in the drama of John and Yoko’s extraordinary lives.

We All Shine On is a must-read for Beatles and Lennon fans, offering an up close and intimate view of one of the most celebrated artists of the twentieth century, as well as one of the most fascinating marriages. But it’s also a relationship story that just about everyone can relate to, a tale about partnership, loyalty, and trust, and most of all, the lasting legacy of a true and deep friendship.

A People Best Celebrity Memoir of 2024

“It’s hard to define the relationship Elliot had with our family. But I ultimately think the best word to describe him is: friend. Perhaps our closest friend. The reason I wanted Elliot to write a book, first and foremost, is because he is a good storyteller. The fact that he was there in the lives of John and Yoko (and mine), is really just icing on the cake. I like hearing him talk, and I’m sure you will, too.” —Sean Ono Lennon

"Packed with insider details about Lennon and Ono’s unique creative alchemy, Lennon’s fabled, debaucherous “Lost Weekend” apart from Ono in Los Angeles between 1973-1975 and the horrifying aftermath of Lennon’s 1980 murder, We All Shine On is, at last, Mintz’s story too. In it, he ponders what his life might have been like had he never picked up that phone in the first place (he never married or had children), and why, he, of all people, became the sympathetic ear of choice for Lennon, Ono and a wealth of other celebrities of the time." —Spin News

“With We All Shine On: John, Yoko & Me, author and publicist Elliot Mintz fashions a heartbreaking portrait of Lennon’s life and times beyond the recording studio.” —Salon

“A clear-eyed, compassionate account of a friendship with two extraordinary people, and a must-read for those interested in the couple.” —Goldmine Magazine

“Elliot Mintz’s We All Shine On: John, Yoko and Me has the interests of Beatle People especially piqued. Arguably, no one was closer to John and Yoko Lennon during the 1970s or spent more time with them in person or on the phone than Mintz.” Houston Press

“Radio personality Mintz debuts with a vivid account of the decade he spent as John Lennon and Yoko Ono’s confidante, fixer, and friend… It’s a captivating and intimate window into the complicated lives of one of rock’s most legendary couples.” —Publishers Weekly (Starred Review)

“A charmingly modest tale of a long brush with stardom, with all its pleasures and frustrations.” —Kirkus

"We All Shine On makes readers feel as if they’ve spent time with the book’s subjects…you’ll likely find the captivating story of this unusual friendship unduly hard to put down.” —BookPage
