This collection of 50 love letters, from famous artists and writers to politicians and royals, includes names such as Mozart, Michelangelo, Benjamin Franklin, Hemingway, Chagall, Balzac, Oscar Wilde, Lewis Carroll, Ronald Reagan, Napoleon, G.B. Shaw and even Elvis Presley.

Reading these felt like witnessing some of the most intimate bits of their lives, with their sorrows and joys and feelings of passion, bliss, tenderness, anger and despair.

? From Zelda Fitzgerald to F. Scott Fitzgerald:
"Without you, dearest dearest I couldn't see or hear or feel or think - or live - I love you so and I'm never in all our lives going to let us be apart another night."

? From Frida Khalo to Diego Rivera:
"My fingers touch your blood. All my joy is to feel life spring from your flower-fountain that mine keeps to fill all the paths of my nerves which are yours."

The moment I came across this book I felt compelled to get it. Just imagine the emotions rolling off the heart and falling on paper, the passion, the feels! I sometimes consider myself a cynic but whenever I come across anything like this I know there is something inside of me that must not be completely frozen 😥😂
