Description
The Divine Magnet is a collection of letters that reveal the passion, humor, and spiritual yearning of Herman Melville's personality. Written in a lyrical and effusive style, these letters are literary works in themselves, offering an intimate view of Melville's thoughts and feelings.
For decades, these letters have been out of print, appearing only in scholarly volumes of Melville's complete correspondence. Now, they are being made available to a wider audience, along with supplemental material, in a beautifully produced volume that sheds new light on the relationship between Melville and his fellow literary giant, Nathaniel Hawthorne.
This book provides a unique insight into the lives and work of two of America's most celebrated writers, and is a valuable addition to any collection of literary biography or correspondence.
