This fascinating anthology is a dive into the personal letters of some of the brightest literary minds in history.

This collection offers a glimpse into the personal lives of some of the world's most beloved poets, novelists, and playwrights. Peek into their correspondence and you might be surprised by what you learn. The letters contain wisdom and life lessons from the likes of John Keats and Oscar Wilde, as well as shared feelings of loneliness from Charlotte BrontΓ«, loss from Ovid, and love from George Eliot.

With one letter for every day of the year, start or end your day with words from some of the brightest minds that ever put pen to paper. A Literary Letter for Every Day of the Year is a collection of emotional, historical, and literary significance, helping us understand some of our favourites even further.

This anthology spans the centuries from the classic to the contemporary and includes voices such as Ignatius Sancho, Jane Austen, William Wordsworth, the BrontΓ«s, Frederick Douglass, Elizabeth Gaskell, Charles Dickens, Virginia Woolf, Sylvia Plath and Ted Hughes, Maya Angelou, and many more.
