Today on the podcast Katie is joined by Rachel Sherlock to discuss the joy of the written word, particularly in the form of letters. A lost art form? A hipster throwback? Or something deeper than that... a physical memorial of a life well lived, a profound opportunity for friendship? We'll discuss the eminently charming 84 Charring Cross Road, our own letter writing experiences, and what we think we've lost in an age devoted to ephemeral digital mementos.
