About this ebook

Real letters sent to the Shakespearean heroine in Verona, Italy—seeking guidance and sharing tales of the passion, pain, humor, and heartbreak of love.

Every year, over ten thousand letters addressed to Juliet Capulet arrive in Verona, Italy, the famous hometown of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. These handwritten letters come from people all over the world, seeking guidance and support from Juliet herself.

Capturing the pain, joy, humor, and confusion of love, the sixty letters in this book offer encouragement, comfort, hope—and a nod to the human condition. Including responses from Juliet herself (in the form of a group known as Juliet's Secretaries), this romantic and relatable collection proves that love is the universal language.
