Love Letters of Great Men was published to great success in November of 2008. It was a fantastic holiday hit that continued to sell well through Valentine’s Day. The demand was fueled by the fictional book's presence in the hit film Sex and the City.
At last we have the much anticipated Love Letters of Great Women with the writing of fascinating and brilliant women such as Jane Austen, Georgiana Duchess of Devonshire, Anne Boleyn, George Sand and Emily Dickinson. Their heartfelt letters and missives will show that the most complicated of feelings, love, was the same passionate, torturous and jealous affair for the women as it was for the men.
In an age of cellphones, texts, and twitters, this timeless and unique collection reminds us that none of our new modes of communication can compare to the simple joy of sitting down to read a letter from the person they love most, making this a keepsake both men and women everywhere will want to give and receive.
