LITTLE WOMEN (HANDWRITTEN CLASSICS) (HB)

For anyone who loves Austen, and for anyone who still cherishes the joy of letter writing, this book illuminates a favourite story in a whole new way with nineteen replica handwritten letters placed in glassine pockets throughout the book. Each of the girls' personalities is perfectly encapsulated in the letters they pen to Marmee, and Jo's heart-wrenching poem "My Beth" speaks to the profound bond between two sisters. Each letter is re-created with gorgeous calligraphy and is hand-folded with painstaking attention to historical detail.
