Beacon Press has published \u003cem\u003eWe Sing of Life\u003c\/em\u003e. It’s got songs for children, young people, and adults. It was all written out by Boston’s Edward A. Karr—and W.A. Dwiggins can’t get over how well it was done. How do we know this? Because this is a letter that Dwiggins wrote to Karr saying as much and also thanking him for some tobacco. Dwiggins would die the following December. Coincidence? Who can say? We’re just asking the question.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWe Sing of Life\u003c\/em\u003e is easy to get, and it doesn’t cost much at all. We’re not in the mood, though. We recommend buying this letter and then getting yourself a copy of the book to make for the ultimate in Dwiggins\/Karr flexing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlso comes with an October 28, 1955, postcard from WAD to EAK and an undated envelope addressed by hand to Karr.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MSCOM","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49856436109552,"sku":null,"price":500.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0003\/7040\/9508\/files\/WADtoEAK.jpg?v=1781801049","url":"https:\/\/ksmallgallery.com\/products\/a-letter-from-w-a-dwiggins-to-edward-karr","provider":"Katherine Small Gallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
