This book is a collection of selected scripts from this series, composed with a British audience in mind, in which the author offers us a glimpse into her own everyday tales of the city. Over several years, Helene Hanff read aloud these stories of her life in New York for BBC Radio 4’s Woman’s Hour. The front cover was specially designed by New Yorker illustrator Bruce Eric Kaplan, also a fan of the author and a resident of New York City too. To showcase this wonderful book, we commissioned the New York Times bestselling author Jean Hanff Korelitz ( The Plot) to pen a new introduction – she is a cousin of Helene Hanff’s, and was inspired to become a writer after meeting her as a teenager. Manderley Press is delighted to announce the publication of a brand-new edition of Helene Hanff’s Letter from New York – another literary jewel from the author of 84, Charing Cross Road.
