We have featured Benedict Cumberbatch reading letters by Kurt Vonnegut, Alan Turing, Albert Camus, and Nick Cave, along with passages from Kafka’s Metamorphosis and Melville’s Moby Dick. It’s all pretty heady stuff. And now it’s time for something completely different. Above, we have Mr. Cumberbatch reading, with classic British understatement, a comical letter written by Ross Beeley, back in 2011. The reading will help you get through another dystopian day.

Cumberbatch read this letter at an event called Letters Live, held in London’s Royal Albert Hall, in December 2024.
