Until a few years ago, J.M. Barrie’s manuscript letters to Robert Louis Stevenson were presumed lost. Since Michael Shaw discovered them, he has been enchanted by the correspondence, and has now compiled this first ever edition bringing both writers’ letters together. The introduction to this fascinating exchange shows why they developed such an intense bond (despite never meeting) and the deep impact their correspondence had on Barrie’s life and work.
