Decidedly absurd and always entertaining, the very best letters to The Times are a treasure trove of wit, humour and unexpected insight.
From bizarre uses for old school ties to the nostalgic disappearance of the humble washing line, this collection lets you in on more than a few inside jokes from one of Britain’s longest-running correspondences.
While the other pages of the newspaper chronicle the pressing issues of the day, the Letters page often muses on the things that really matter. Now back for the third year in a row, Sir: The year in letters is a selection of the best of these letters, an elegant and erudite display of Times readers at their most whimsical and droll.
The perfect gift for anyone with a shrewd sense of humour, this book features:
An absurdly entertaining round up of the year’s happenings
More than 400 letters featured in The Times, curated by Letters editor Andrew Riley
