'This collection of letters between the celebrated actress Kate Fitzpatrick, her artist mother and her designer sister over forty years opens a window onto the lives of three fascinating creative women... Through letters and stories we watch Kate's life develop and gain insights into why choices were made and turns were taken. In her wry commentary she fills in the gaps, sets the scene, spills secrets, interprets family shorthand and tells wonderful stories.' From back cover of Airmail (2005).
