“Beautiful. The human condition is on full display in these glimpses of our essential connectedness. Perfect for our times.” —Dani Shapiro, author of Inheritance Sixty-five extraordinary writers grapple with this mystery: How can an ephemeral encounter with a stranger leave such an eternal mark? When Colleen Kinder put out a call for authors to write a letter to a stranger about an unforgettable encounter, she opened the floodgates. The responses—intimate and addictive, all written in the second person—began pouring in. These short, insightful essays by a remarkable cast of writers, including Elizabeth Kolbert, Pico Iyer, Lauren Groff, Gregory Pardlo, Faith Adiele, Maggie Shipstead, Lia Purpura, Kiki Petrosino, and Jamil Jan Kochai, are organized around such themes as Gratitude, Wonder, and Farewell and guide us both across the globe and through the mysteries of human connection. Addressed to a first responder after a storm, a gambler encountered on jury duty, a waiter in Istanbul, a taxi driver in Paris, a roomful of travelers watching reality TV in La Paz, and dozens of others, the pieces are replete with observations about how to live and what we seek, and how a stranger’s loaded glance, shared smile, or question posed can alter the course of our lives. Moving and unforgettable, Letter to a Stranger is an irresistible read for the literary traveler and the perfect gift for anyone who is haunted by a person they met once and will remember forever.

Dearest E. I thought of you today, like I do every day. I hope you are safe. I'm scared that you are not. And that it's all my fault. But know this forever - I love you. R. x It is summer 1939 and, even in rural Norfolk, no one can ignore the fact that the world is on the brink of war. But seventeen-year-old Ruby is trying her best to. She's young, she's beautiful, and she's in love - with her childhood sweetheart Edmondo. She wants to close her eyes to her parents' fear, her brother's determination to sign up, and the sudden mistrust from the people in her village towards Edmondo's Italian family... But then everything changes. And Ruby makes a decision that will mean she has to keep a secret from everyone she knows, maybe forever... Until, eighty years later in spring 2020, she finds herself, as an elderly woman, taking part in a letter-writing scheme. It's simply meant to stave off boredom, but when she begins corresponding with a total stranger - a young single mother named Cassie - an unexpected and beautiful friendship develops. And Ruby realises she has a chance to share that secret - before it dies with her. But Ruby and Cassie's lives are connected in ways they could never have imagined. And, as letters fly between them, truths will be revealed. Truths with the power to either destroy their new friendship, or give both women the chance to change their lives forever...

Letter from a Stranger Barbara Bradford Justine Nolan is a documentary filmmaker who lost her cherished grandmother a decade ago—the only source of love and comfort in her life. Her own mother, Deborah, has always been distant, focusing on her career as an interior designer. But when Justine inadvertently opens a letter addressed to her mother, she discovers that not only is her grandmother alive, but that Deborah has deliberately distanced her from the family for all these years. Justine's search for her grandmother takes her to Istanbul, where she begins to uncover secrets that stretch all the way back to World War II. As layers of deception peel away, Justine begins to understand a woman she never really knew...and she begins to ask questions about the true desires of her own heart.

Without further ado, Sarah sends the rucksack back to its owner, along with a letter.

In 2012 Sam Livermore started leaving notes for strangers in the hospital while she was there for treatment of her chronic illness. Notes turned into letters in envelopes inviting people to open them. After a pivotal moment of realising she was writing the letters to herself, friends joined in and started to leave them in the local area. This grew into a bigger movement, Share The Love that now goes to events and festivals and invites people to write a letter for a stranger. This book is a collection of some of those letters written in the last few years. Share The Love has grown into a movement that has a bigger mission to support the homeless in various ways. 100 Letters To A Stranger will help to fund the Share The Love homeless project. "Sam is such an inspiration. She is showering the world in love. Have you ever received a love letter? The ones from Sam are amazing, deeply healing and deeply touching, always reading what you need to hear. Her book 100 Letter To A Stranger helps you to open up your heart too. I love how you can simply open the book and read one letter per day, guiding you, reminding you, inspiring you, as you go along. I love Sam's energy, and her dedication to keep going, and focus on love no matter what. I am honoured to have written and shared some love letters with Sam, what a profound heart warming experience. Now you can receive 100 gorgeous Love Letters within this book, for you to keep and come back to whenever you need. Love is. And Sam shares love." - Caroline Palmy, Heart Flow Healer at PalmyHealing.com "As a positive song lyricist this book is true to my heart as I wrote my first solo album in 2015 called 'The Love Energy' which is similar to this outstanding book. It reminds me that humanity is loving, kind and compassionate and in our ever-challenging world is an absolute blessing. We need more books like this - smart, motivational and uplifting! If you don't believe in yourself at the start of this book be ready to open your heart, feel uplifted and gain more self love by the end of it. If more people on the planet got to read this book the conscious energy would change by more people loving themselves and each other, and it would be a better more peaceful place to live." - Elyse Rogers, Singer/Songwriter www.elysemusic.com "I absolutely LOVE everything about Sam and this book! Her message and leaving random letters for total strangers reminds me of a quote I once read, 'strangers are friends we are yet to meet'. This is such a simple idea, yet one of the most caring random acts kindnesses we could do for others. Which makes total sense, because this is what Sam is all about! Love kindness and compassion. The first time I met Sam and we hugged it out I felt like I had known her all my life. She was warm, smiley, radiant and affectionate. Exactly how this book make you feel as you turn the pages and read each love letter. I'd highly recommend this book to anyone, it will warm your heart and remind you of how beautiful you are. Thanks Sam. I love you." - Brett Moran, Brett-moran.com

"A ... memoir of love and faith from Hannah Brencher ... who has dedicated her life to showing total strangers that they are not alone in the world. Fresh out of college, Hannah Brencher moved to New York, expecting her life to look like a scene from Sex and the City. Instead, she found a city full of people who knew where they were going and what they were doing ... Lonely and depressed, she noticed a woman who looked like she felt the same way on the subway. Hannah did something strange--she wrote the woman a letter. She folded it, scribbled 'If you find this letter, it's for you...' on the front and left it behind. When she realized that it made her feel better, she started writing and leaving love notes all over the city ... [eventually sending 400 handwritten letters as a result of an Internet post and starting the website The World Needs More Love Letters]"--

'Every deep feeling a human is capable of will be shaken loose by this short, but profound book' David Sedaris 'I wanted what we all want: everything. We want a mate who feels like family and a lover who is exotic, surprising. We want to be youthful adventurers and middle-aged mothers. We want intimacy and autonomy, safety and stimulation, reassurance and novelty, coziness and thrills. But we can't have it all.' Ariel Levy picks you up and hurls you through the story of how she lived believing that conventional rules no longer applied - that marriage doesn't have to mean monogamy, that aging doesn't have to mean infertility, that she could be 'the kind of woman who is free to do whatever she chooses'. But all of her assumptions about what she can control are undone after a string of overwhelming losses. 'I thought I had harnessed the power of my own strength and greed and love in a life that could contain it. But it has exploded.' Levy's own story of resilience becomes an unforgettable portrait of the shifting forces in our culture, of what has changed - and what never can.

But as they set off, Mira realizes fellow travelers are all total strangers. And every one of them is hiding something. Soon, roads go from slippery to terrifying.
