She holds a graduate degree in odd Victorian art and has handled more than a few nineteenth-century letters (with great care). Sylvie married her former pen pal and lives in the mountains, where she dresses impractically and dreams of the sea.","products":[{"product_id":"a-letter-from-the-lonesome-shore-paperback","title":"A Letter from the Lonesome Shore - Paperback","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDive into the charming conclusion to the Sunken Archive duology, a heart-warming magical academia fantasy filled with underwater cities, romance of manners and found family, perfect for fans of\u003ci\u003e Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of Faeries.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Former correspondents E. and Henerey, accustomed to loving each other from afar, did not anticipate continuing their courtship in an enigmatic underwater city.
