Abstract

“The Letter Writer” is about a young man living in Glasgow, Scotland, in 1911, whose sweetheart has recently emigrated with her family to Brisbane, Australia. Jim is so bereft that he cannot bear even to write to Barbara, but his landlady’s son intervenes. Eventually he is able to write his own letter.
