La invención de Morel is so good! Might reread it soon. I'm so excited to snag a couple recos from you here - very interested in The Lonely City and You Must Change Your Life. <3
Will check out the Julia Child correspondence! In the past few years, I have started to read letters alongside whatever fiction/poetry/nonfiction/history I'm reading -- really enjoyed the Flaubert-Turgenev letters, esp the light amusing touches like how much time they spent talking about how little they saw each other.
I should have mentioned that I'm also in the grip of a cooking obsession, so details of recipe development and what wasn't available in US grocery stores in the 1950s may not be as interesting to others! But they're both charming correspondents...
