Oscillating between earnest questions and bawdy jokes, James Agee's decades of letters, compiled by their trusty recipient, Father Flye, explore issues of spiritual belief, literature, family, success and writing. Though most of Father Flye's letters have since been lost, Agee's writing glimmers with a multi-faceted intelligence and lifelong ambition, from the first letter he penned at 15 to the last before his death.
