I’ve always been a sucker for the epistolary, whether fiction or not (as here).
These are really quite lovely, however, in their own right. Poets with great command of language, imagery, sensory. Their friendship grows across the page and their words become quite magical as they get to the nitty gritty of their lives.
Lovely, and sometimes, sad to read. I can’t remember where I saw this book recommended now, but I’m so glad I did.
Really makes you want to do nothing else but curl up with collections of their poems and get to know them even better.
