reviewed Yours, Isaac Asimov: A Lifetime of Letters on February 14, 2018 Yours, Isaac Asimov: A Lifetime of Letters
Isaac Asimov was a prolific writer. Over the course of his career, he wrote nearly 500 books. That is not unusual of itself. What is amazing is that he had books published in all ten of the major categories of the Dewey Decimal system.
His books were translated into many languages. He received letters from fans from all over the world. And he answered them himself keeping carbon copies of his replies.
After Asimov's death, his brother sorted through some 40,000 letters and postcards. He selected from these and assembled this book. The letters are loosely arranged by topic.
Now that the dry description is done, read this book for the fun of it. Asimov had a big sense of humor and it shows in many of the letters. His limericks are a bit ribald, as good limericks often are. Some of the topics are worthy of careful consideration.
Anyone familiar with Asimov should read this book. Any science fiction fan should read this book. Any Shakespeare lover should read this book. Writers should read this book. Just read this book.
