Acerca de esta escucha

Letters of Note, the book based on the beloved website of the same name, became an instant classic on publication in 2013, selling hundreds of thousands of copies.

This new edition sees the collection of the world's most entertaining, inspiring and unusual letters updated with 14 riveting new missives and a new introduction from curator Shaun Usher.

From Virginia Woolf's heart-breaking suicide letter to Queen Elizabeth II's recipe for drop scones sent to President Eisenhower, from the first recorded use of the expression 'OMG' in a letter to Winston Churchill, to Gandhi's appeal for calm to Hitler and from Iggy Pop's beautiful letter of advice to a troubled young fan, to Leonardo da Vinci's remarkable job application letter, Letters of Note is a celebration of the power of written correspondence which captures the humour, seriousness, sadness and brilliance that make up all of our lives.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"This book was brilliant in written form and it’s even better in audio, with a cast of famous voices elevating hilarious, horrifying and moving historical epistles." (Guardian, Audiobook of the Week)

These letters all capture moments startling, or poignant, heartrending or hilarious, from times spread across millenia. Great to hear such talented readers bringing the emotional power of these words though this one needs to be on the shelf as well, for lifelong enjoyment.

An incredible record of humanity

i wish the individual chapters had some sort of titles instead of just numbers, so that I could go back to the ones I enjoyed the most and remember them better.

Great listen

Runs the gamut of human eloquence and emotion, wit and drama. The casting and delivery is also excellent. Thoroughly enjoyable, informative and stimulating.

Superb!
