Arthur Conan Doyle
A collection of twelve letters written in the late 19th century (1880s). The letters are correspondence from J. Stark Munro, a young medical doctor, to his friend Herbert Swanborough and provide a revealing look into the challenges faced at the start of a professional career, personal relationships, and existential musings. The book gives insights into the character of Munro as he navigates his life, including friendships, career aspirations, and emerging philosophical thoughts. At the start of the letters, Munro expresses his deep affection for his friend Bertie and shares memories from their university days, particularly focusing on their mutual acquaintance James Cullingworth. Cullingworth is portrayed as a highly imaginative and eccentric character with a flair for invention and a tumultuous personality. Through his engaging anecdotes, Munro touches upon themes of ambition, the nature of talent and genius, and the contrasting lives of ordinary individuals. Munro also reflects on his own uncertainties regarding faith and purpose, setting an introspective tone for the letters that follow.
