Book Description

When we are inarticulate, it is to the masters of language that we turn to express our tenderest, most secret feelings. This is what you'll find in the love letters of Margaret Fuller.Considered one of the brilliant intellectuals of the mid-19th century, the opinionated and forceful Fuller would seem an odd choice to turn to for tender feelings. But for all her dynamism and outspokenness, her friends knew her tender heart and sensitive nature. In these letters are all the hopes, insecurities, sadness, and joy of love that we all experience but often fail to put into words.Included in this collection of letters are wonderful memories of Fuller by her dear friends Ralph Waldo Emerson, Julia Ward Howe, Horace Greeley, Charles Congdon, and the man to whom these love letters were addressed.
