Synopsis

This edition is the final volume in the Frank Love Letters series. After fighting for the Four Freedoms and the ideals for a world living without fear and oppression, Horgie takes up the fight to get home. Despite the war ending in early May, Horgie and Peachie will have to wait several more months before learning of what it will take to finally be reunited. This is a story of love and longing. It is also the story of reconciliation on many levels. Making sense of something that doesn't make sense is maddening. Fight to get home, fight for love, and fight for your neighbour.

A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

Frank and Marthe Horgan are my grandparents. They lived in Toronto in an apartment at 50 Grenadier Road after they got married in April 1943. They also often spent time with extended family at 311 Sunnyside Ave. Over 300 love letters were written between 1941-46 during the height of World War 2. His philopshy of life, his openness to new experiences, constant affectionate expressions of love and his longing to be home with his wife and infant son (spoiler alert-my father!) are common threads in this story.

I prepared +300 lover letters that Grandpa wrote to Grandma from 1941-1946 in book form initially to make it accessible to my children (as they can't read cursive) and I needed something to do. Helping Grandpa achieve his thought of being a popular romantic writer is something so special for me to be a part of.

Plug for Draft2Digital, it literally was easier and cheaper for me to format my book, make available online, and get a printed author copy shipped to my home than going to Staples and figuring how to use the self-serve copy machines for basic 8.5 x 11 manuscript. I believe it is the responsibility of a community to tell it's own story. We write our stories to learn about what is important in life and how to get it, what is worth honouring and celebrating and what is not worth ever repeating. I invite you to follow their story and have something different to reflect on next Rememberance Day, Veterans Day, Memorial Day, or other observance of tragedy. Reflect on love and what it takes to get home.
