My Dearest gathers ten of the most beautiful love letters ever written, from a twelfth-century abbess in France writing to the man she was forbidden to love, to a young revolutionary in China saying goodbye to his wife on the eve of the uprising that would take his life. Each letter is recreated on a single page and sealed in its own addressed envelope, so you can open them one by one, the way they were first meant to be read.
Inside you’ll find Napoleon writing to Joséphine on his way to command the army in Italy, Beethoven pouring his heart out to an “Immortal Beloved” whose name he never revealed, a Civil War soldier writing to his wife a week before battle, and a widow in sixteenth-century Korea whose letter was found folded on her husband’s chest four hundred years later. The back of every envelope tells the story of the person who wrote it. Housed in a deep red collector’s box finished in gold foil, this first edition is limited to 500 copies.
A beautifully crafted collector’s edition, featuring luxurious finishes and thoughtfully designed details to preserve history’s greatest love letters.
