Summary: "The series [of letters], beginning in 1896 and ending with the year 1918, shows how a relationship [between Luise Katusky and Rosa Luxemburg] that consisted at first merely of a certain 'consanguinity of the mind', of a co-membership in the party and of a co-partnership in work, gradually ripened into a most intimate friendship. Moreover, it gives a picture of Rosa's development and reveals Rosa both while at work and while engaged in struggle, both while resting and while seeking recreation, as a person of tremendous earnestness and at the same time of most joyous abandon." -- from the introduction
