This lovely little book collects a number of letters by and for mothers written by a number of well know figures; including George Bernard Shaw, Bette Davis, Richard Wagner, Sylvia Plath and many more. Within this collection you will read words of pride, of love, of advice, of frustration and admiration, as each letter weaves a complex narrative of the role of how mothers have shaped the lives of those they have mothered. A beautiful little book for the mother figure in your life. Complied by Shaun Usher, this little ode to motherhood was born of Letters Of Note - which began in 2009 as a website celebrating old-fashioned correspondence to a modern audience.
