EID MA CRACK SHAW



I found this love letter many years ago in a thrift store. The rest of the documents in the file in which I found it were dated 1942.
I've always been seduced by this letter that was not sent to its intended recipient Leilanie.

'Eid Ma Crack Shaw' is a song by Bill Callahan, from the album 'Sometimes I wish I were and Eagle'. It is one of my favourite songs at the moment. I find it evocative, melancholic and I think its genius. And also relevant to me these days and the author of this letter.
