1842 brach der junge und schon gefeierte Autor Charles Dickens zu einer Lesereise nach Amerika und Kanada auf - von Boston bis St. Louis, von Richmond bis Quebec, mit Bahn oder Schiff. Zunächst stellte er sich ein Amerika vor, in dem eine tolerante und demokratische Zukunftsgesellschaft entstehen würde, ohne den Dünkel der englischen Aristokratie. Umso enttäuschter war er über den amerikanischen Kapitalismus und vor allem über die Sklaverei. Seine Kritik an Land und Leuten formulierte er unmittelbar und nicht ohne Ironie in seinen "Aufzeichnungen aus Amerika", gelesen von Christian Brückner.

Parmi les plus belles lettres de la littérature mondiale, écrites par celle que Virginie Woolf nommait "le seul auteur que j'envie". Au fil des années, de 1913 à 1921, et de ses correspondants, Katherine Mansfield nous fait suivre son douloureux combat contre la tuberculose, en même temps que sa lutte contre la page blanche. Sa vie et son œuvre étaient étroitement liées. Elle écrivait avec sa vie, son sang, ses souffrances - et aussi avec cette gaieté qui s'emparait d'elle devant un ciel clair, un arbre en fleur, un enfant qui rit.

DAG 5 MÅNDAG 23 JULI 2001 5.53: Solen som skiner genom gallret på mitt fönster tyder på att det måste vara en härlig sommardag. Jag har fängslats i en mycket liten cell i tolv och en halv timme och kommer inte att släppas ut igen förrän på middagstid. Totalt arton och en halv timmes isolering. I cellen nedanför min sitter en sjuttonårig kille. Han har anklagats för snatteri, det är hans första förseelse. Han är inte ens dömd, ändå låser de in honom på isoleringen i närmare ett dygn utan möjlighet att prata med någon.

Für Rainer Maria Rilke war Weihnachten schon immer das wichtigste Fest des Jahres, das er oft in selbstgewählter Stille und mit dem Schreiben liebevoller Briefe verbrachte. Am 24. Dezember stellte sie sich ein, die "unvergleichliche Erwartung", die für ihn mit Heiligabend verbunden war. Eindringlich und nahbar beschreibt er in seinen Briefen an Familie und Freunde wie Anton Kippenberg, Lou Andreas-Salomé oder Franz Xaver Kappus, was ihm das "liebe alte Fest" bedeutet.

In The Love That Dares, queer love speaks its name through the words of lovers from years gone by. Alongside the more famous names coexist beautifully written letters by lesser-known lovers, giving us an insight into queer love outside of the spotlight of fame or fortune. These letters give us a glimpse into the passion and courage it took to continue a gay relationship in times when it was at best improper and at worst illegal. Enlightening introductions to each set of letters give readers an idea of the historical context in which they were written.

Über seine Mutter Gertrud schrieb der Künstler Einar Schleef einen Roman. Er nannte ihn "Gertrud" und versuchte darin, ihre ostdeutsche Gedankenwelt nachzuempfinden, von der er seit seiner Flucht in den Westen getrennt war. Mit ihr schrieb er sich auch Briefe. Die Angst der Mutter, die Unbedenklichkeit des Sohnes, die Anhänglichkeit und die Unabhängigkeit - es sind Kräfte, die sich anziehen und gleichzeitig abstoßen.

When the state of Colorado ordered its residents to shelter in place in response to the spread of coronavirus, writers Pam Houston and Amy Irvine — who had never met — began a correspondence based on their shared devotion to the rugged, windswept mountains that surround their homes, one on each side of the Continental Divide. As the numbers of infected and dead rose and the nation split dangerously over the crisis, Houston and Irvine found their letters to one another as necessary as breath.

Each working day from January 29 to November 1, 1951, John Steinbeck warmed up to the work of writing East of Eden with a letter to the late Pascal Covici, his friend and editor at The Viking Press. It was his way, he said, of "getting my mental arm in shape to pitch a good game." Steinbeck's...

Lo poco que me es posible prometer aquí es que si mis crónicas se leen con buen ánimo y sin mala leche entonces el viaje será compartido y nadie se arrepentirá. "La gente no es mala si tiene espacio donde moverse", se escucha decir a un personaje en Hotel Savoy, la novela de Joseph Roth.
