Description: When Irene Spencer meets Vera Small at her daughter Lesley's wedding reception, they embark upon a correspondence that is quite unlike any other in the history of letter-writing. Both Irene and Vera are happily widowed and endowed with errant offspring. They live in a world of church f'tes and amateur dramatics, but love nothing more than dipping their pens in the vitriol pot - while remaining the firmest of pen-pals. Feisty, naughty and endlessly funny, Ladies of Letters provides a hilarious insight into suburban friendships as they really are! 'Quite honestly as I laid the last letter aside I felt a better person for having glimpsed behind the net curtains of Mrs Small's and Mrs Spencer's life.' - Sue Townsend. 1 CD. 1 hr 30 mins.

Review: I have listened to several of the audio recordings of `Ladies of Letters' but this is the first I've read. It's the idea book to dip into when you have a few spare moments. The letters are marvellous examples of how to compliment someone without actually complimenting them and how to criticise without appearing to. The letters do contain an ongoing story which you can follow from one letter to the next. I found myself chuckling and cringing over some of the spats between Irene and Vera - chance met at Irene's daughter's wedding. In this book Vera and Irene find themselves in some very sticky situations from which only their good friends can extricate them. I think Ladies of Letters actually work better in audio format but I enjoyed reading these over the space of a few evenings
