Book Description
Letters from the Afterlife is a hopeful, inspiring after-death communication received by a lady almost a century ago. In the early part of the twentieth century, a lady began a process of "automatic writing" - as though she were an instrument for someone else's words. Days later she discovered that the "writer" - identified as attorney and author David Patterson Hatch - died thousands of miles away, and he was telling his story of life after death through her. The resulting book, originally published as
Letters from a Living Dead Man in 1914, gained widespread popularity and was hailed for helping remove the fear of dying. An eyewitness account of the afterlife, told while the storyteller was there, the book describes life after death in minute detail, including the consequences of suicide, how loved ones find each other, and the relationship with higher beings.
Reader Reviews
This is a reissue of a book written and published nearly 100 years ago. The style reflects the period. What I enjoyed about this book the most was the way that the letters enticed the reader to consider the nature of reality, the openness one can achieve, and the sense of responsibility one has for oneself and others in any given incarnation.
