Letters Left At The Pastrycook's is a novel written by Horace Mayhew and published in 1853. The book is a collection of letters exchanged between two friends, Kitty Clover and her unnamed friend in town. Kitty is a young girl attending a boarding school, and her friend is a woman living in the city. The letters are written in a clandestine manner, as Kitty's school forbids her from corresponding with anyone outside of the institution. Despite this, Kitty and her friend continue to send letters back and forth, sharing their thoughts and experiences with each other. The book provides a glimpse into the lives of young women during the Victorian era, exploring themes of friendship, love, and social expectations. Through Kitty's letters, readers are able to experience the joys and challenges of growing up in a society that places strict limitations on women's behavior and aspirations. Overall, Letters Left At The Pastrycook's is a charming and insightful novel that offers a unique perspective on life in 19th-century England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
