This tribute to the epistolary art looks at letters of all kinds from all eras, in genres ranging from love letters to suicide notes, fan mail to hate mail. Mallon, a novelist who has previously considered people and their diaries, here offers a sensitive appreciation of Sacco and Vanzetti’s letters from prison, Madame de Sévigné’s sharp-tongued court gossip, and paternal advice from F. Scott Fitzgerald to his daughter, among much else.
