Description

Join us for this rare peek into some of the most personal and emotional writing in our collections. We’ll start with the aching yearnings of poet and notorious romantic, John Keats, who signed “yours forever” to the object of his affection, Fanny Brawne. Spend an evening with us as we get up close and personal with a variety of treasures like handwritten pages from James Joyce’s Ulysses, correspondence from Marlene Dietrich to Mercedes De Acosta, and much more.
