A year's worth of literary letters, with one for every day of the year.
This fascinating anthology is a dive into the personal letters of some of the brightest literary minds in history. 

This collection is a look into the personal lives of some of the world's most beloved poets, novelists, and playwrights. Take a peek into their correspondence, where you might be surprised what you learn. The letters contain wisdom and life lessons from the likes of John Keats and Oscar Wilde, as well as shared feelings of loneliness from Charlotte Brontë, loss from Ovid, and love from George Eliot.

With one letter for every day of the year, you can start or end your day with words from some of the brightest minds that ever put pen to paper. This is a collection with emotional, historical and literary significance, helping us to understand some of our favourites even further.

This anthology spans the centuries from the classic to the contemporary, and includes Ignatius Sancho, Jane Austen, William Wordsworth, the Brontës, Frederick Douglass, Elizabeth Gaskell, Charles Dickens, Virginia Woolf, Sylvia Plath and Ted Hughes, Maya Angelou, and many more.

Liz Ison studied English Literature at Cambridge, before training as a speech and language therapist. She has a doctorate from UCL for research into childhood speech and literacy development. In 2015, after ten years in education research for the UK government, Liz trained with British charity The Reader and has since been running shared reading groups, in person and online. Liz lives in London.
