Shelley’s Snail Mail

Curiosities
January 10, 2014 | 1
Most of our internet browsing results in wasted time and too many cat videos, but Nora Crook stumbled upon Mary Shelley's unpublished letters while researching an obscure 19th-century novelist. In the letters, which range from 1831-49, Shelley fawns over her son and even discusses a 3 a.m. trip to her hairdresser when she got a ticket to the coronation of William IV in 1831. The letters will be published soon in The Keats-Shelley Journal.
