Cartas a Teresa recoge la correspondencia, hasta ahora inédita, sostenida entre Jorge Guillén y su hija Teresa entre 1948 y 1984. En 1947 fallece Germaine Cahen, la primera esposa del poeta, y desde ese momento, Teresa, la hija mayor del matrimonio, se erige como el soporte de la familia y de su padre; dada la distancia entre ellos, las cartas funcionan como principal canal en esta relacion. El epistolario reune centenares de misivas que se convierten en un valioso testimonio de la vida de Guillen tanto en el exilio (desde 1938 reside en Estados Unidos primero y en Italia, despues) como en la etapa de regreso a España, entre 1977 y 1984, año de su fallecimiento. Las cartas nos acercan a su memoria familiar, a sus quehaceres cotidianos (preocupaciones, viajes, reuniones, gastos), a los trabajos ordinarios a los que obliga el oficio de escritor (composicion de poemas, tratos con editores, correcciones de pruebas) o a las relaciones academicas y sociales que fue estableciendo a lo largo de su trayectoria profesional. Pero estas cartas son tambien un valioso testimonio de la figura de Teresa Guillen (Teresa Gilman, de casada), en su faceta no solo familiar sino tambien cultural e intelectual.
