About the book

It all began with a letter inquiring about second-hand books. It was written by Helene Hanff in New York, and posted to a bookshop at 84, Charing Cross Road, in London. As Helene's sarcastic and witty letters are responded to by the stodgy and proper Frank Doel of 84, a relationship blossoms into a warm and charming long-distance friendship lasting many years.
