Lovingly yours-Penpals

Voltaire writes, “The post is the constellation of life.”

Letters, especially love letters by other people, make the most interacting reading in the world. Nevertheless, brought up in a culture dominated by mobile phones, WhatsApp, SMS, internet and satellite communications, it seems the present generation does not realize the immense value of this time-honored practice. In literature, there are examples of books on letters like Letters from a Father to His Daughter by Pt. Jawaharlal Nehru to his daughter Priyadarshani Indira (Late Mrs. Indira Gandhi, former Prime Minister of India) and A Treasury of the World’s Great Letters by M. Lincoln Schuster.

Lovingly Yours – Pen Pals, though not the first of its kind, is yet a very valuable document as it faithfully records the priceless palpitations of two young pen pals—a Polish girl and a Punjabi boy—when both tried to build a bridge across cultures, climates, countries and continents, through their boundless desire to connect and understand each other intimately.

It is sure to capture the imagination of readers who take delight in reading letters especially of young, romantically inclined hearts, passionately struggling to come closer through the art of words.
