Christopher Reid, ed. — Letters of Ted Hughes
Faber & Faber, 2007. First Edition, Hardcover. Near Fine Condition/Near Fine. Slight discolouration to top edge, contents otherwise clean and unmarked, slight creasing to jacket edges. At the outset of his career Ted Hughes described letter writing as 'excellent training for conversation with the world', and he was to become a prolific master of this art which combines writing and talking. This selection begins when Hughes was seventeen, and documents the course of a life at once resolutely private but intensely attuned to other lives (including a readership comprising both adults and children): a life pared down to essentials and yet eventful, peripatetic, at times publicly controversial. 784 pages. Quantity Available: 1. Category: Biography & Autobiography; Inventory No: dscf10141.
