| Summary | "Letters of Edward FitzGerald to Fanny Kemble" by Edward FitzGerald is a collection of personal correspondence written during the late 19th century. The letters provide an intimate glimpse into the friendship between FitzGerald, a renowned translator and writer, and Fanny Kemble, an esteemed actress, and writer. This compilation not only highlights their literary discussions but also captures the social and cultural milieu of their time. The opening of the collection sets the stage for a meaningful exploration of the correspondence that spans from 1871 to 1883. FitzGerald’s letters reflect his cosmopolitan sensibilities and wit as he engages with Kemble about his personal life, including musings on literature, friends, and household matters. He shares anecdotes—like the humorous blunders made by a reader—and inquires about Kemble's well-being and travels, showcasing a warm familiarity and concern. This initial segment effectively introduces readers to the tone and style of FitzGerald's writing, characterized by its charm and clever observations, and hints at the depth of their friendship through the candid and thoughtful exchanges.
