Description du livre Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. For the Love of Letters is a celebration of letter-writing in all its guises, a showcase for the masterpieces we would all write if we had the time and inclination - the perfect thankyou letter, a riotous despatch from a far-flung location, that heartfelt declaration of love.As John O'Connell shows, the best letters have much to teach us - Samuel Richardson's 'familiar letters'; Wilfred Owen's outpourings to his mother; the schoolboy scatology of Kingsley Amis and Philip Larkin; Churchill and Clementine's reflections on the 'colour and jostle of the highway' they trod together; the sly observational charms of Jane Austen.In this richly entertaining book, O'Connell puts forward a passionate case for the value of letter-writing in a distracted, technology-obsessed world. A properly crafted letter is something to be cherished, an act of exposure which gives shape and meaning to the chaos of life. In the words of John Donne, 'Sir, more than kisses, letters mingle souls; For, thus friends absent speak.' Handwritten is a celebration of letter-writing in all its guises Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781780721095
