The legendary correspondence between the critic Walter Benjamin and the historian Gershom Scholem bears indispensable witness to the inner lives of two remarkable and enigmatic personalities. Benjamin, acknowledged today as on of the leading literary and social critics of his day, was known during his lifetime by only a small circle of friends and intellectual confreres. Scholem recognized the genius of his friend and mentor during their student days in Berlin, and the two began to correspond after Scholem's emigration to Palestine. Their impassioned exchange draws the reader into the very heart of their complex relationship during the anguished years from 1932 until Benjamin's death in 1940.

This also made me think a lot about how much written communication has changed with the internet and text messages. They wrote each other long, beautiful, deeply thoughtful letters weekly. A collection of my correspondences would consist mostly of misspelled, incomplete sentences, links, emojis and one word replies. Sad!
Only reason it's not 5 stars is cause so many of their letters rely on a deep familiarity with the writers and works they are referencing and discussing, so about a quarter of the book was just incomprehensible to me. ( )
