Relation Concering Books The Letter

Kathryn Hughes’ new ebook The Letter offers readers a chance to absorb themselves in the lives of two women, born decades apart but whose lives share a number of parallels. The novel explores two historical strands, bringing together an abused housewife from the 1970s and a young girl from the early 1940s in a story of love, loss and unexpected consequences.

The Letter follows the life of Tina in the 1970s who seeks respite from her abusive marriage by volunteering at a charity shop. One day, while sorting through the pockets of a second-hand suit, she comes across an old letter. It is still firmly sealed and un-franked. Unable to resist the pull of curiosity, Tina opens the letter. It was written on 4th September 1939. She is so moved by the contents and bemused as to why the letter was never delivered, she embarks on a quest to find out what became of the writer and his intended recipient.

The mystery of how this love letter ended up in Tina’s hands is also uncovered through Billy’s story from the early 1940s. He writes a letter that will change his life forever, unaware that it will not be read for another 34 years, and then by a complete stranger.

With a swift pace, memorable characters and a wonderful conceptual depth, Hughes’ novel is one that simply can’t be put down.

Having struggled through Donna Tartt's The Goldfinch, a book that took me almost three weeks to read, I was looking for something light to read over the Christmas. The name Kathryn Hughes caught my attention because I have a niece who spells her name the same way, with a K and a Y. When I read in the acknowledgements that her husband's name is Robert Hughes, my nephew's name, I smiled at the coincidence and decided to give the book a read. Of course, the coincidences didn't stop there. It is a

The Letter is a historical romance that spans across three generations, and like most love stories it tells about love found and love lost.Even though this subject is often predictable with its indiscriminate apportioning of pain and heartache...still each story has its own unique experiences...this is one such story.It's not a fluffy read, it's a story about two women, a generation apart, who's struggles have a lot in common, and how time and circumstance will conspire to bridge the gap between

2.5 stars round up to 3. This dual narrative set in the 1970's and 1939 was a fairly predictable storyline that had a Hallmark Hall of Fame type vibe. The readers are taken from Manchester to Ireland and the USA. I did find the story was a nice light read and I would love to read more by the author.

I was totally taken away by this novel which tells a moving if sad story of love lost and found; two stories thirty years apart which become one. It is 1973 and Tina is in an abusive marriage and contemplating her future when she comes across a letter in the pocket of a suit donated to the charity shop in which she works. Addressed to another Christina - Tina's full name - Tina is intrigued by the coincidence and her imagination fired when she realises that the letter was never franked and thus

I am very very late in reading this, I was lucky to get this in paperback and ebook. My thanks to HEADLINE for my copy.As the title predicts, this is all based on a letter, but, do not be mislead, its much more indepth than that.Cast your mind back to 1970's and life back then. Tina worked in a charity shop, and as you sort through garments donated you need to search in pockets to make sure there is nothing in there.Tina did just that on a regular basis but this time, she found something.On



Wow! What a wonderful uplifting story, heart breaking and heart warming - in between tears I smiled! I loved, loved this book and can't recommend enough, if you are a fan of Lesley Pearce you will love this heart-rending read, I couldn't put it down and didn't want it to end. The characters are believable, it was easy to read and follow and will stay with me for a long time! Will definetly be reading more by Kathryn Hughes.
