The Letters of Muriel Spark (Volume 1)

'Anyone interested in what it was like to be a young woman of slender means trying to make her way as a writer in the middle of the last century need look no further than this immaculately-edited collection of Muriel Spark's letters. Feisty, fun-filled, witty and, of course, sparky, the letters are a window into a remarkable life that was lived in devotion to literature'
Alan Taylor, author of Appointment in Arezzo: A Friendship with Muriel Spark
