I very much enjoyed The Last Letter From Your Lover by Jojo Moyes which is set in two time periods - early 1960s and 2004. Ellie Haworth is a journalist with a London newspaper which is moving premises. While helping sort through the archives, she discovers an intriguing letter written in 1964 asking someone to meet the writer at a railway station. It is a poignant love letter entreating the recipient to begin a new life with him. The story then crosses back and forward between the two time periods so we learn about the 1960s lovers and their lives and also about Ellie's life. Ellie is determined to find out what happened to the lovers and this "investigation" has a great effect on her own life. 5/5Wednesday, May 30, 2012
