ಬಿ ಜಯಶ್ರೀ ಅವರಂತಹ ಶಕ್ತಿಯನ್ನು, ಸ್ವಾಭಿಮಾನಿಯನ್ನು, ಪ್ರತಿಭೆಯನ್ನು ಅಕ್ಷರಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಬಂಧಿಸುವುದಾದರೂ ಹೇಗೆ? ನಾನು ಈ ಸವಾಲಿಗೆ ಮುಖಾಮುಖಿಯಾದಾಗಲೆಲ್ಲ ನನಗೆ ದೊಡ್ಡ ಬೆಂಬಲ ಮತ್ತು ಬೆನ್ನು ಚಪ್ಪರಿಸುವಂಥಾ ನಂಬಿಕೆಯ ಮಾತುಗಳು ಬಂದದ್ದು ಸ್ವತಃ ಜಯಶ್ರೀ ಅವರಿಂದ.

What began as a singular letter in response to a younger family member standing on the precipice of her 60th birthday and asking the age-old question, 'What’s it like to be old?,' soon turned into one full year of unsent reflections, wonderment and curiosity of a life truly lived. Out of these reflections, New York Times-bestselling author Sophy Burnham developed this short, storytelling collection of unsent letters that offer listeners of all ages hope and happiness, and new ways to perceive our later years.

Camille Claudel la transgressive, la sculptrice de génie, l’artiste sulfureuse et maudite, l’amante libre de Rodin, basculant dans la folie, enfermée à l’asile durant les trente dernières années de sa vie. Artiste trop avance sur son temps, elle s’affranchit de toutes les règles, de toutes les conventions sociales. Son œuvre sera sa vie. Outre qu’elle a sculpté avec acharnement durant trente ans, elle a été, quasiment toute sa vie, une épistolière assidue. Des lettres, elle en a écrit des centaines, et nombreuses sont celles perdues ou détruites.

Ruskin Bond is most at home in his cosy room in Landour, a room with a window—from which he looks out on the world. A room where he writes his daily journal. In these leaves from his journal, written over the past two years, Ruskin describes his days in his unique way: from the joy of seeing a new flower bloom to the pain of a toothache that just can't be ignored. Outside, the seasons change. In his room, for Ruskin, every morning brings new thoughts, new observations.

כמה אירוני שתפקיד השוטה בהמלך ליר עשוי להיות התפקיד האחרון שגילמתי בחיי, ושהשורה האחרונה שאמרתי על במה תהיה השורה – שורה הולמת באופן מוזר – שבה שייקספיר משלח את השוטה אל מותו בשרירותיות שכזו: וְאָנֹכִי אֶשְׁכַּב לִישֹׁן בַּצָּהֳרַיִם. ב־24 ביוני 1940 נפרד השחקן והמשורר סטיבן האגרד מאשתו ומשני בניהם הקטנים שהפליגו לאמריקה. ב־27 ביוני הוא התייצב לשירות צבאי בחיל הרגלים.

When you flip through your old papers, you find a lot of nonsense...a lot of empty talk that has no head or tail, some of which indicates extreme silliness or naivety or funny optimism or unjustified self-confidence or an unnecessary feeling of lowliness.

Now in the pantheon of great thinkers, Simone Weil (1909–1943) lived largely in the shadows, searching for her spiritual home while bearing witness to the violence that devastated Europe twice in her brief lifetime. The letters she wrote to her parents and brother from childhood onward chart her intellectual range as well as her itinerancy and ever-shifting preoccupations, revealing the singular personality at the heart of her brilliant essays. The first complete collection of Weil's missives to her family, A Life in Letters offers new insight into her personal relationships and experiences.

These letters were arranged in two volumes by Albert Bigelow Paine, Samuel L. Clemens's literary executor, as a supplement to Mark Twain, A Biography, which Paine wrote. They are, for the most part, every letter written by Clemens known to exist at the time of their publication in 1917. They begin with a fragment of a letter from teenaged Sam Clemens to his sister, Pamela, and conclude with a letter to his attorney two weeks before his death. These letters give us some degree of insight into the evolution of Twain's style of speech and prose over the period of his lifetime.

Based on select writings from a collection of more than two thousand Dutch diaries written during World War II in order to record this unparalleled time, and maintained by devoted archivists, The Diary Keepers illuminates a part of history we haven’t seen in quite this way before, from the stories of a Nazi sympathizing police officer to a Jewish journalist who documented daily activities at a transport camp.

At the start of the 20th century, Rainer Maria Rilke wrote a series of letters to a young officer cadet, advising him on writing, love, sex, suffering, and the nature of advice itself. These profound and lyrical letters have since become hugely influential for generations of writers and artists of all kinds, including Lady Gaga and Patti Smith. With honesty, elegance, and a deep understanding of the loneliness that often comes with being an artist, Rilke's letters are an endless source of inspiration and comfort.
