Olivia Harrison, former wife of the Beatles’ George Harrison, has announced a book of poetry dedicated to her late husband’s memory. It’s titled Came the Lightening, and it’s out June 21 via Genesis Publications. Find more information about it here.
“Here on the shore, twenty years later, my message in a bottle has reached dry land. Words about our life, his death but mostly love and our journey to the end,” Harrison said in a statement about the book. George Harrison died on November 29, 2001; Came the Lightening marks the 20th anniversary. Last year, Harrison’s All Things Must Pass got a massive vinyl reissue with multiple new editions and previously unreleased material.
