Seller's Description:
Fine in Very Good+ dust jacket. 1569248575. Tight unmarked book with crisp letters and envelopes intact; in dust jacket with a nick to top of spine and piece of tape securing the small envelope on front panel. A fascinating collection with facsimile letters from the likes of John Keats, Katherine Mansfield, Dylan Thomas etc.
I bought this book years ago and it is one of my most treasured possessions.I have bought additional copies of it as gifts. The copies of the actual letters is such an awesome addition to a book that I would have loved anyway. The chosen passages included in the book are touching in every way. Some are funny, some are sad, some are romantic. But no matter how they touch you its like going back in history and feeling what they were feeling at this most special time in their lives.

This is one of my favorite books of poetry. The facsimile letters lend a tremendous touch to an already great book that you can take to your heart.
