The Correspondent: Special Deluxe Edition - By Virginia Evans - Hardcover

A beautifully produced deluxe hardcover edition of The Correspondent, Virginia Evans’ tender and quietly powerful novel about memory, aging, family, regret, and the enduring importance of the written word.

About the Book

Sybil Van Antwerp is seventy-three: a mother, grandmother, retired lawyer, avid gardener, and devoted letter writer. Most mornings, she sits down to write—to family, friends, institutions, and even authors whose books have moved or irritated her.

Through letters, Sybil has made sense of the world and her place in it. But when correspondence from her past resurfaces, she is forced to revisit one of the most painful chapters of her life and reconsider what still might be possible.

Warm, intelligent, and deeply humane, The Correspondent celebrates the richness of an examined life and the quiet power of words exchanged across time.
