I am wondering if others can recommend texts that heavily depicts letter writing and its ancillary culture: sending, waiting for, and receiving letters, purchasing letter writing materials, writing and reading of letters. I know this is quite a niche request, but I’m hopeful.
I’ve read collections of letters, books on the history of letter writing, and epistolary novels, but I am looking for something slightly different here: something that depicts what these books describe, lives lived in the culture of letter writing.
