On August 23, 1971, Sarah couldn’t stop writing to Dick. In the afternoon, she shares her Miami shopping adventures, buying a swimsuit and trying to look her best while pregnant. That night, she picks up her pen again, writing with longing, humor, and passion. Across two letters and eleven pages, she shows her devotion to her husband and the kind of love that could live happily in a shack on the floor—or surrounded by every comfort.
