The Best Letters Of Charles Lamb

By Charles Lamb

Book Overview

A quiet voice that travels across time, The Best Letters Of Charles Lamb reveals a world where wit, warmth, and keen observation walk hand in hand. This epistolary collection becomes a living diary of friendship, literary criticism, and a uniquely intimate Georgian London. From cheerful jottings to thoughtful essays and letters, Lamb's voice invites readers into a house filled with domestic humour, sentiment, and sharp literary judgment. The correspondence reads as both study and revelation-an affectionate portrait of authorship, criticism, and the playful cadence of daily life as shared with friends such as Hazlitt. It is a window into early nineteenth-century letters that feels as modern as today and as enduring as classic literature itself.
