The Correspondence of Samuel Butler with His Sister May offers an intimate glimpse into the thoughts, relationships, and creative processes of the renowned author through a meticulously edited collection of letters. This compilation preserves the authenticity of the original manuscripts while making necessary adjustments to ensure readability and clarity for modern audiences. With consistent formatting and light corrections, the editor strikes a balance between fidelity to Butlers writing and ease of understanding. These letters not only shed light on Butlers private musings but also provide context to the people, events, and ideas that influenced his work. This volume is an essential resource for Butler enthusiasts and literary scholars alike, offering a rare view into the author's personal communications. By cross-referencing Butler's published works and unpublished Notebooks, the editor enriches the reader's understanding of the historical and intellectual backdrop of the letters. Complete with verified identifications of individuals mentioned and references to the celebrated Shrewsbury Edition, this collection bridges the gap between Samuel Butler's public achievements and private reflections, revealing the complexity of his character and creative mind. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Presss mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact.
