Rese�a del editor:

In May 2005 Penguin will publish 70 unique titles to celebrate the company's 70th birthday. The titles in the Pocket Penguins series are emblematic of the renowned breadth of quality of the Penguin list and will hark back to Penguin founder Allen Lane's vision of 'good books for all'.

Alistair Cooke is one of the world's best-loved broadcasters, whose weekly radio dispatch Letter from America entertained listeners around the globe from 1946 until his death in 2004. Penguin have proudly published editions of Cooke's Letters since 1979, and those in Letters from Four Seasons have been specially selected along the theme of the changing seasons to show the range, intimacy and elegance of his inimitable style.
