In the letters collected here he communicates his passion for words, books, music, art, food, and nature -- as well as his enthusiasm for sharing these passions -- to autodidact Patricia Larsen. Larsen met Joseph in 1967 through the third of her four sons who attended Choate, and over seventeen years the two friends developed an emotional camaraderie reflected in letters that are eminently civilized, wise, witty, instructive, and aglow with their shared zest for life.
