Letters to My Children Benn Haidari

When Benn Haidari was separated from his children by domestic turbulence and physical distance, he refused to become just another absent father. With only the simplest medium and purest will, he set out to maintain contact the only way he knew how: a series of letters to his children. In them, he carefully identifies the lessons he thinks they ought to learn about life and, through these ideas, teaches them about himself. Rich in its detailing of life's peculiarities, passionate about simple pleasures and compelling in its poignancy, Letters to my Children serves as a reminder of the love and hope to be found in every day and every envelope.
