SHOWS US WHAT A GLORIOUS THING GROWING OLDER CAN BE' Florence Knapp‘I DON'T HAVE ANY WORDS.WHAT A BEAUTIFUL STORY’ Reader review'I THINK I'VE JUST FINISHED MY FAVOURITE BOOK OF THE YEAR' Reader review-- Every morning, Sybil Van Antwerp sits down to write letters – to her brother, to her best friend, to the president of the university who will not allow her to attend a class she desperately wants to take, to her favourite authors to tell them what she thinks of their latest books. Because at seventy-three, Sybil has used her correspondence – witty and wise – to make sense of the world.But beyond the page, she has spent the last thirty years keeping the people who love her at arms’ length...Until letters from someone she had put out of her mind land on her doorstep, forcing her to reckon with her past mistakes. For as Sybil is about to learn: it’s never too late to write a few post-scripts. Funny, wry and bittersweet, The Correspondent is a gem of a novel about the power of connection and the mistakes and acts of kindness that occur during a lifetime, told by one of the most memorable characters you will ever meet.Perfect for fans of Three Days in June, Olive Kitteridge and Tom Lake.
