A romantic, interactive gift book with facsimiles of real letters and quotations from five centuries of real-life love letters. These are arranged thematically tracing the natural history of romantic love from the first "Revelation" to full-fired "Passion", with "Adoration", "Propositions", "Hesitation" and "Supplication" along the way, followed by "Possession", "Celebration", "Felicitations" and "Domestication". The experience of opening a real love letter for the first time is recreated - envelopes and packets contain facsimiles of real love letters from eloquent lovers. Textured papers, Victorian paintings, lithographs and line drawings complement the design.
