John Lennon Pictures: May Pang to Release New Book with Unpublished Photos of John Lennon

May Pang, John Lennon's former lover during the 18 months in 1973 and 1974 has completed a new book which is being endorsed by John Lennon's first wife, Cynthia Lennon. May's affair with John was arranged by her employer Yoko Ono when Yoko split from John. During their 18-month relationship also known as the "Lost Weekend," several of John's records were produced which can arguably be said to be his most creative time after the Beatles broke up.

Yoko is said to have tried to systematically erase May from Lennon's history, but May has now published a collection of photos she had during her time with him. May's new book, "Instamatic Karma" is hitting stores next month. Although this is May's second book about her relationship, the photos in this new book haven't yet been published.

Cynthia reportedly said:

"My first meeting with May, in the early seventies, was fraught with tension and uncertainty. My efforts to reunite Julian with his father after four years could [have] gone one way or another. May was wonderful, even though she was young and inexperienced in having to deal with such sensitive and emotional issues. Before long we became close friends. May was open, caring and compassionate to me and my son, Julian. For all that May has done in the past and hopes to achieve in the future, Julian and I will be her greatest champions. She is a lovely, vibrant lady. She was a good friend when my son and I needed one, and a dear close friend now. This book of photographic memories is very special and evocative of times remembered. May, We wish you all the success in the world."

I look forward to reading the book and seeing the unpublished photos of John Lennon. Isn't it interesting that she and Cynthia Lennon are good friends?
