Product Information
A 2016 Edgar Award finalist, the "intimate, luminous portrait of a friendship" of two American literary icons ( Kirkus , starred review). In 1970, Ross Macdonald wrote a letter to Eudora Welty, beginning a thirteen-year correspondence between fellow writers and kindred spirits. Though separated by background, geography, genre, and his marriage, the two authors shared their lives in witty, wry, tender, and at times profoundly romantic letters, each drawing on the other for inspiration, comfort, and strength. They brought their literary talents to bear on a wide range of topics, discussing each others' publications, the process of translating life into fiction, the nature of the writer's block each encountered, books they were reading, and friends and colleagues they cherished. They also discussed the world around them, the Vietnam War, the Nixon, Carter, and Reagan presidencies, and the environmental threats facing the nation. The letters reveal the impact each had on the other's work, and they show the personal support Welty provided when Alzheimer's destroyed Macdonald's ability to communicate and write. The editors of this collection, who are the definitive biographers of these two literary figures, have provided extensive commentary and an introduction. They also include Welty's story fragment "Henry," which addresses Macdonald's disease. With its mixture of correspondence and narrative, Meanwhile There Are Letters provides a singular reading experience: a prose portrait of two remarkable artists and one unforgettable relationship.

Reviews
Eudora Welty and Ross Macdonald are giants of American literature. These exquisite letters chart the growth of a deep and abiding friendship. And, astoundingly, they become a love story that will break your heart."—Alfred Uhry, author of Driving Miss Daisy and winner of the Pulitzer Prize, the Tony Award, and the Oscar Praise for Suzanne Marrs' Eudora Welty: A Biography : [It] belongs on the shelf beside its subject's own work." —Francine Prose Few American writers have been as honestly yet sympathetically understood as Eudora Welty is in Suzanne Marrs's scrupulous book." —Reynolds Price Praise for Tom Nolan's Ross Macdonald: A Biography : With its loves and betrayals, professional successes and personal tragedies . . . it reads like a Ross Macdonald novel, which is high praise, indeed." — Publishers Weekly (starred review), "An intimate, luminous portrait of a friendship." -- Kirkus Reviews , starred review "Whether read straight through as a narrative or enjoyed over time in short takes, this is a letter collection to be savored." -- Booklist , starred review "Eudora Welty and Ross Macdonald are giants of American literature. These exquisite letters chart the growth of a deep and abiding friendship. And, astoundingly, they become a love story that will break your heart." --Alfred Uhry, author of Driving Miss Daisy and winner of the Pulitzer Prize, the Tony Award, and the Oscar "What could be better than a love built on friendship, and a friendship built on letters? To catch a glimpse into the inner lives of these tender, brilliant, bookish souls is a thrill beyond measure." --Ann Patchett, author of Bel Canto and This Is the Story of a Happy Marriage "A fascinating book that affords great insight into the creative genius of two master storytellers. In an era of personal communication marked by texting and tweeting, Meanwhile There Are Letters is a wonderful reminder that the lost art of writing a letter is about as personal as it can get." --Michael Connelly " Meanwhile There Are Letters is a testament to the power of the pen and the human spirit. Surely longing is the most complex and passionate of all emotions. . . . This is as moving a love story as you will ever read." --Lee Smith, author of The Last Girls and Guests on Earth "Eudora Welty and Ken Millar were lovers. Their passionate affection for each other was expressed in their words, written in letters, rather than in the physical. But they touched one another as deeply as if they lived and shared life together under one roof, one desk, one bed--maybe more so. They exchanged thoughts about their respective art as writers but also their complete experiences as two people traveling in and out of minds and emotions as well as hotels, cities, conferences, conversations, laughs, disappointments, relationships. These letters and the two lives they reveal are a treasure. Read them, hold them as they did each other--and envy them." --Jim Lehrer, executive editor of the PBS NewsHour and author of Top Down "Across barriers of gender, background, region, and literary practice, two writers extend the gift of friendship to one another. The result is literature itself: the letter as art form and documentation of daily life as well as an expression, at once spontaneous and crafted, of that longing for understanding that can be met through a correspondence edging into an even more mysterious communication." --Kevin Starr, University of Southern California "It is a truth universally acknowledged that a writer in possession of talent must be in want of another writer with talent because writers need friends, and so it is in these letters. We witness a deep abiding friendship unfurl into what can only be called a love story. Electrical currents pop beneath the surface of the prose, and then there are the breathless postscripts, for always there is more to say. The subplot is in the sign-offs and very soon, it is Love. After a fashion, they simply sign their names, Ken (Ross's real name). Eudora; then K and E, their mutual love now understood." --Margaret McMullan, author of Aftermath Lounge and My Mother's House, Praise for Suzanne Marrs' Eudora Welty: A Biography : [It] belongs on the shelf beside its subject's own work." —Francine Prose Few American writers have been as honestly yet sympathetically understood as Eudora Welty is in Suzanne Marrs's scrupulous book." —Reynolds Price Praise for Tom Nolan's Ross Macdonald: A Biography : With its loves and betrayals, professional successes and personal tragedies . . . it reads like a Ross Macdonald novel, which is high praise, indeed." — Publishers Weekly (starred review)
