Details

A most charming guide to the lost (but never forgotten!) art of correspondence. Inspired by a fussy Victorian who once held very serious opinions on stamp-licking, cultural critic Rachel Syme has given letter-writing a modern, and decidedly more delightful, refresh. Within these pages you’ll learn the fine sport of perfuming a parcel, the proper way to press a flower for posting, and the joy of tucking flat frivolities into your envelopes. Whether you are a seasoned scribbler of notes or have yet to send your very first missive, this book will coax you, gaily, persuasively, into the habit of keeping up with your correspondence. Postage stamps at the ready!
