Description

This inspiring, fascinating collection of women’s letters is organized by subject matter, & covers a wide range of topics from politics, work & war, to childhood, love, & sexual passion. The book reveals the depth, breadth & diversity of women’s lives through the ages. Here Heloise writes to Abelard of her undying devotion, Vita Sackville-West & Virginia Woolf correspond about life & writing, & Queen Victoria complains to Robert Peel about the neglect of Buckingham Palace. Many more women write letters that reveal the compassion, humor, love & tenacity with which they confront the often difficult circumstances of everyday life. “A rare opportunity to read the real words of real women, in their own intimate language.”
