Industry Reviews
"These are some of the best love letters ever written....Robert Spoo's fair and comprehensive introduction rivals the thoroughly helpful notes in making this a very reader-friendly book. The notes face the letters on left-hand pages. Foreign phrases are translate din brackets. the editing is as conscientious as editing can be."
Washington Post Book World - Guy Davenport (03/14/1999)
"[T]he editors...have annotated LETTERS IN CAPTIVITY lovingly and well, so that the reader can glean each letter's significance and fully enjoy this glimpse into the Pounds' relationship and their quirky, often delicious prose."
New York Times Book Review - Emily Barton (03/14/1999)
