Letters of Note: New York is a compulsive collection of the world's most entertaining, inspiring and powerful letters with New York at their heart, curated by the founder of the global phenomenon lettersofnote.com.
In Letters of Note: New York, Shaun Usher curates a collection of extraordinary written exchanges about the Big Apple, from the marvelling of wide-eyed newcomers and the devoted outpourings of native citizens, to the frustrated outcries of the dispossessed and the fond reminiscences of old-timers.
Includes letters by: Italo Calvino, Ralph Ellison, Kahlil Gibran, Bianca Jagger, Helen Keller, Martin Scorsese, Saum Song Bo, Rebecca West and many more.
'Addictive, like dipping into a bag of variously tempting assorted candies, knowing that the next one will always bring surprise and pleasure.'
The New Yorker
'A gloriously presented compilation.'
Financial Times
'It is hard to see how Letters Of Note could ever be surpassed.'b
Mail on Sunday
'The literary equivalent of a box of chocolates – bite-sized and pure addictive pleasure ... The result is beautifully produced, with photographs and colour facsimiles of much of the correspondence. A gorgeous Christmas present.'
Sunday Times
'Quite literally the most enjoyable volume it is possible to imagine. Every page is a marvel.'
The Spectator
