«84, Charing Cross Road» is the epistolary account by Hélène Hanff, published by Editorial Empúries in paperback (112 pages, in Catalan).
The work brings together the real correspondence that Hélène Hanff, writer and screenwriter in New York, maintained for nearly twenty years with Frank Doel, an antiquarian bookseller at 84 Charing Cross Road, London. Their shared passion for books and the orders crossing the Atlantic shape a friendship marked by distance, with her spontaneous humour and his discretion.
The edition belongs to the Anagrama/Empúries collection and includes a Catalan translation by Purificación Gómez Casademont.
Recommended for readers interested in epistolary narratives, books about books, and the relationship between writers and booksellers.
