Epistles

Your pen cruises against the surface of the delicate paper as you communicate to it and the addressee everything you feel and want to say. You fold it up neatly and look for a wintery white envelope to seal your letter in. But before you can wrap your thoughts neatly with the last touch of a red wax seal you stop to think. Quickly unfolding the letter you read: ‘Dear ___’ and stop. You decide against sending the letter. You decide against remembering the address or maybe you don’t remember it that well after all. This book is about those unsent letters. Letters whose writers have a multitude of reasons for not sending them in. Not knowing the receiver or perhaps knowing them too well. What’s your reason?
