Can anyone recommend either a collection of letters (e.g. Jane Austen Selected Letters) or an epistolary novel (e.g. Letters of a Portuguese Nun, Olinda)? I rather enjoy the format of such books and would like to read more. Bonus points if the novels are of a different style to the two mentioned above. Whilst enjoyable and interesting, they aren't my favourites. Extremely heavy on romance, virtue and proclamations of love.
