DESCRIPTION

Back in print for the first time {2000] in nearly thirty years, here is Yoko Ono's whimsical, delightful, subversive, startling book of instructions for art and for life.

"Burn this book after you've read it." —Yoko

"This is the greatest book I've ever burned." —John

Grapefruit was originally published in a limited edition of 500 copies by the Wunternaum Press in Tokyo in 1964. The 1970 edition contained material from the original, and pieces and drawings done in subsequent years by Yoko Ono.
