best letter

It is suitable to enjoy this literary and artistic movie quietly in a quiet study room under dim lighting on a warm afternoon.

I envy that era, when the mobile Internet had not yet emerged, and TV had only just appeared. The two distant people could only communicate through letters. Every time I received a letter, I was very happy. Books and letters are everything. A book and a cup of coffee are in the warm sunshine. Birds and dogs fly and pass by from time to time. Occasionally, I can smell the fragrance of flowers. People on the roadside do not rush. However, you can always find someone to talk to, and you share your views on the same book.

The two have exchanged letters for 20 years. Although they have never met, they have become strangers who are most familiar with each other in the world. The two have not seen each other for 20 years. For various reasons, although Frank has passed away, although Marco Bookstore has been demolished...

Helen said, "If you happen to pass by 84 Charing Cross, please give me a kiss, I owe it a lot..."

Extended Reading

    "The Fourth Wall" breaks down naturally and decently, full of delightful intimate little actions, and the adaptation of the original is precise and vivid, sincere and moving.

    Concentrated rendering, but the story almost went on for 20 years, with an intermittent taste.

84 Charing Cross Road quotes

  • Frank P. Doel: [reading "He wishes for the Cloths of Heaven" by William Butler Yeats] "Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths, Enwrought with golden and silver light, The blue and the dim and the dark cloths, Of night and light and the half light, I would spread the cloths under your feet: But I, being poor, have only my dreams; I have spread my dreams under your feet; Tread softly because you tread on my dreams."

  • Helene Hanff: Somebody gave me this book for Christmas. It's "A Great Modern Library" book. Ever seen one of those? It's less attractively bound than the "Proceedings of the New York State Assembly" and it weighs more. It was a given to me by a gent who knows I'm fond of John Donne. The title of this book is: "The Complete Poetry and Selected Prose of John Donne *and* the Complete Poetry of William Blake"? The question mark is mine. Will you please tell me what those two boys have in common except - they were both English and they both wrote.
