A great storyMae Adams has captivated me again with her wonderful and lovely stories。 “The Letters: A lifetime Foreign affair” is an epistolary novel and I dare say a rollercoaster of emotions。 This collection of letters shows different realities from the main characters´ lives。 Through them you can notice that no matter the obstacles that any couple faces， if there is love， every problem can be solved。 When I was reading it， a novel that I read many years ago came to mind。 Why am I mentioning t A great storyMae Adams has captivated me again with her wonderful and lovely stories。 “The Letters: A lifetime Foreign affair” is an epistolary novel and I dare say a rollercoaster of emotions。 This collection of letters shows different realities from the main characters´ lives。 Through them you can notice that no matter the obstacles that any couple faces， if there is love， every problem can be solved。 When I was reading it， a novel that I read many years ago came to mind。 Why am I mentioning this？ Simply because I liked the memories or the messages that both reading left me: Love can move mountains。 It is a poignant but romantic story with a lot of changes in between。 I highly recommend it because of its plot but primarily because I loved the writer´s narrative technique。 。。。more

Love against all barriersIn her book “The Letters: A Lifetime Foreign Affair”， author Mae Adams shares her own personal love story with her readers。This is not an everyday story， since the characters get together to unite two totally different worlds， opposing cultures and lifestyles。I am not particularly fond of love stories， but I could see the beauty in this one。 It must have been really hard for the real characters to confront such adversity just to be together， and that touched my heart。I l Love against all barriersIn her book “The Letters: A Lifetime Foreign Affair”， author Mae Adams shares her own personal love story with her readers。This is not an everyday story， since the characters get together to unite two totally different worlds， opposing cultures and lifestyles。I am not particularly fond of love stories， but I could see the beauty in this one。 It must have been really hard for the real characters to confront such adversity just to be together， and that touched my heart。I like the way the writer puts her ideas together and the loving effect she creates while transmitting her story。Though this is not my favourite book， I could see how many might enjoy this story and I give this title three stars。 。。。more

I loved this reading。 I always enjoy romantic novels but this one has an extra ingredient that makes it very special。 It tells the love story of a couple who belong to different countries， cultures and opposite realities。Through the letters they exchange， we get to know their different daily lives， their happy moments and achievements as well as the difficult situations they go through。 These situations are described in a very real way。I recommend this reading because it is not only a romantic a I loved this reading。 I always enjoy romantic novels but this one has an extra ingredient that makes it very special。 It tells the love story of a couple who belong to different countries， cultures and opposite realities。Through the letters they exchange， we get to know their different daily lives， their happy moments and achievements as well as the difficult situations they go through。 These situations are described in a very real way。I recommend this reading because it is not only a romantic and entertaining novel， but it also shares very interesting aspects of the lives and culture of each of the protagonists。 I could empathise with the story and it reminded me of the relationship a person from my group of friends had and， in that way， I felt the story in the book very real。 。。。more

Honesty From Real Life LoveI have recently become very interested in Korean culture， and this book is just one more resource I can add to my collection。 This book is about the author and her late husband and how their relationship formed， struggled， and blossomed throughout the years。 Because it is a true story， it was very emotional for me at times。 From the personal letters they wrote to each other， the reader can follow their path。 From the blunt honesty to the more tender emotions， the lette Honesty From Real Life LoveI have recently become very interested in Korean culture， and this book is just one more resource I can add to my collection。 This book is about the author and her late husband and how their relationship formed， struggled， and blossomed throughout the years。 Because it is a true story， it was very emotional for me at times。 From the personal letters they wrote to each other， the reader can follow their path。 From the blunt honesty to the more tender emotions， the letters represent a deep love and it changed the lives of two people considering the social times of their era。 Truly a wonderful memoir， and one I hope others can appreciate。 I would recommend this book to anyone。 。。。more

Author Mae Adams opened herself up to readers and put pen to paper to enlighten them with a love story that can easily melt a few hearts。The story’s main themes are those of love and romance， but what also prevails here are clashes of culture， countries， statuses and individuals。 These clashes are nothing when love gets on their way。One of the main things I loved about this book is the fact that I had the chance to be exposed to Korean traditions and learn how things work in another country so f Author Mae Adams opened herself up to readers and put pen to paper to enlighten them with a love story that can easily melt a few hearts。The story’s main themes are those of love and romance， but what also prevails here are clashes of culture， countries， statuses and individuals。 These clashes are nothing when love gets on their way。One of the main things I loved about this book is the fact that I had the chance to be exposed to Korean traditions and learn how things work in another country so far as Korea is for me。I expected this to be an ordinary love book， with a general plot about two people falling in love。 I was definitely mistaken！ Well-deserved 5 stars go for The Letters: A lifetime Foreign Affair。 。。。more
