Helene Hanff is a writer in New York, and it is she who first writes to the bookshop at 84, Charing Cross Road about books she is seeking, and, slowly, oh so slowly, Hanff and the bookseller, Frank Doel, become friends. It's a twenty-year correspondence, a twenty-year friendship, all centering around the love of books. Delightfully funny. Exquisite.
