In Letters to Dead Authors, Andrew Lang delivers a series of witty and acerbic letters addressed to a selection of long-gone literary figures. Initially inspired by a playful suggestion from the editor of the St. Jamess Gazette, this collection features sixteen letters that first appeared in that esteemed publication. Langs correspondence is crafted with a unique blend of humor and insight, often tailored to resonate with the personalities of his subjects rather than strictly reflecting his own views. Readers will undoubtedly appreciate the delightful charm and sharp wit that Lang infuses into each letter. (Summary by Leni)Copyright Culture and Heritage classics Kunst
