Aus dem Vorbesitz des libertären Dokumentaristen Hans-Dieter Heilmann. Leicht vergilbt, sonst sehr guter Zustand. Mit Zettel- und Zeitungsbeilage des Vorbesitzers. - Als die New Yorkerin Helene Hanff Anfang der siebziger Jahre nach London kommt, um ihr Buch 84, Charing Cross Road vorzustellen, geht für sie ein lang gehegter Wunsch in Erfüllung. Die Schriftstellerin ist überwältigt von der Weltstadt, die sie nur aus Büchern und aus den Beschreibungen ihres langjährigen Brieffreundes, des Antiquars Frank Doel. kennt. Noch überwältigter ist sie jedoch von ihren englischen Fans. Für einige Wochen wird die unscheinbare, bescheidene New Yorkerin zum gefeierten Star. Zwar tritt sie zuweilen treffsicher in die unterschiedlichsten Fettnäpfe, macht mit ihrem unvergleichlichen Charme aber alles wieder wett. Im Land von Shakespeare, Dickens, John Donne und anderen ihrer geliebten Literaten wird sie wenn auch nur vorübergehend - zur Herzogin geadelt. Hanflfs scharfsinniges und selbstironisches Tagebuch ist eine hinreißende Liebeserklärung an London und Englands brillante Köpfe. ISBN 9783455026511
