Correspondence written by musical legend John Lennon during his lifetime is going to be published in a new book. Actually, on a more technical level, it's a republishing of the letters. You see, the way the law views it, simply composing and mailing a letter is a form of publication. And, just in case you weren't sure about it, a letter that's composed under contemporary American copyright law is protected by copyright. So, according to a New York Times article, Mr. Lennon's correspondence is being published in the book with the permission of his widow, Yoko Ono, whom we can assume controls his estate.
