This is a series of letters charting the twenty-year correspondence between Hanff, searching for books which she could not find her homeland and Frank Doel, a London antiquarian bookseller. A unique and touching exchange, the friendship blossoms, but Hanff never manages a visit to the UK. Both funny and sad, it reveals innate characters, beautifully narrated, separated by an ocean.
