The touching through handwriting,
pen and paper across a distance.
The effort of write, enclose a letter
and mail it makes it a cherished
object, a special gift,
to be held with a type of reverence.

Waves China Marker on Plastic Link to Video Darling - It is about 3 o'clock in the morning - I have been sitting up writing the Marvelous Book! Astounding what I feel when you are not here – become suddenly very severe- don’t care for Eating or sleeping but filled with lovely feelings and twice as sensitive to sound and lights colour etc. It’s all a matter of magnetic forces – Same things that keep the Earth Circling Aren’t we wonderful – Love Love Love Love Love Waves – love waves – I’ve been writing about dance waves sound waves light waves – all the same – How many thousand miles an hour do light & sounds waves travel – So quick travel never – ceasing love waves from me to you – and from you to me –

Isadora Duncan, American dancer, to Gordon Craig, an English actor and stage designer, the son of the great actress Ellen Terry (herself the recipient of much fervent correspondence from Georges Bernard Shaw). The date of this letter is probably March 1905. The couple were intimate for many years, and had a daughter together. The ‘Marvelous Book’ to which she refers at the beginning of the letter is Duncan’s essay ‘The Dance and Nature,’ which contains much allusion to wave movements in nature and life.
