520 8  It's a life of the two of us.' This volume comprises the 
       complete surviving correspondence between Benjamin Britten
       and Peter Pears. The 365 letters written throughout their 
       39-year relationship are here brought together and 
       published, as Pears intended, for the first time. While 
       the correspondence provides valuable evidence of the 
       development of Britten's works, more significant is the 
       insight into his relationship with Pears and their day-to-
       day life together. Entertaining to read, domestic and 
       intimate, the letters provide glimpses of cultural and 
       artistic life in the twentieth century, including pacifism
       and conscientious objection, critical assessments of music
       and other artists, transport and communications 
       development in the twentieth century, the 'Aldeburgh 
       corpses', art collecting, gossip, everyday life in an 
       English country house, the development of the Aldeburgh 
       Festival, performance practice in early music, looking 
       after dachshunds, travel, and a host of other topics. 
       Above all, when read together, Britten and Pears's letters
       allow the clearest possible look 'behind the scenes' of 
       one of the most productive creative partnerships of the 
       twentieth century.
