Story1
Between 1881, when Churchill was just six, and 1921, the year of his mother's death, Winston Churchill and Jennie Jerome were prolific and energetic correspondents. Their exchange of letters has never before been published as a volume of correspondence, and many of these intimate letters - between two highly gifted writers - are being published here for the first time. A significant addition to the Churchill canon, Darling Winston traces Churchill's emotional, intellectual and political development as confided to his main mentor.

Story0
Иван Алексеевич Бунин первый русский писатель, получивший Нобелевскую премию по литературе. В 1933 году автор Темных аллей и многочисленных рассказов получил мировое признание с формулировкой: "за строгое мастерство, с которым он развивает традиции русской классической прозы". Не секрет, что по резкости своих оценок, не только литературных, но и общечеловеческих, Бунин не знал себе равных. Не удивительно, что многие современники хотя и признавали его литературный талант, но отмечали сложность его характера и считали высокомерным снобом.

Story0
Franz Kafka connut d'abord Milena comme traductrice : elle établissait la version tchèque de quelques-unes de ses proses courtes. Ces relations se transformèrent en une liaison passionnée dont les lettres permettent de suivre le progrès. Cette passion ne dura qu'un instant, elle tient en quelques mois à peine. Les lettres racontent d'un bout à l'autre ce roman d'amour, orgie de désespoir et de félicité, de mortification et d'humiliation.

Story0
Parmi les plus belles lettres de la littérature mondiale, écrites par celle que Virginie Woolf nommait "le seul auteur que j'envie". Au fil des années, de 1913 à 1921, et de ses correspondants, Katherine Mansfield nous fait suivre son douloureux combat contre la tuberculose, en même temps que sa lutte contre la page blanche. Sa vie et son œuvre étaient étroitement liées. Elle écrivait avec sa vie, son sang, ses souffrances - et aussi avec cette gaieté qui s'emparait d'elle devant un ciel clair, un arbre en fleur, un enfant qui rit.

Für Rainer Maria Rilke war Weihnachten schon immer das wichtigste Fest des Jahres, das er oft in selbstgewählter Stille und mit dem Schreiben liebevoller Briefe verbrachte. Am 24. Dezember stellte sie sich ein, die "unvergleichliche Erwartung", die für ihn mit Heiligabend verbunden war. Eindringlich und nahbar beschreibt er in seinen Briefen an Familie und Freunde wie Anton Kippenberg, Lou Andreas-Salomé oder Franz Xaver Kappus, was ihm das "liebe alte Fest" bedeutet.

Il est une forme qui fertilise les champs littéraire et politique au XVIIIe : celle de la lettre. Et plus spécifiquement celle de la correspondance féminine. Elle est l'expression, pour les femmes de l'élite aristocratique, d'une progressive percée du domaine privé au terrain public. S'appuyant sur le précédent sévignéen, les épistolières ont compris que la lettre est action.

Il ne les écrivit pas et, pour finir, se confia peu.
