Those letters give a spooky insight into the personal and day-to-day woes and obsessions of both Marx and Engels. That is kinda screwed up, and Marx does acknowledge as much later on.
In fairness, I think it's easy to forget they were just humans with moods and problems and strange relationships, it's clear they remained good friends still.
My favourite quote, from a later Engel's letter: "I am now reading Kinglake and am becoming more convinced than ever that somewhere in every Englishman’s brain a board is nailed up beyond which nothing penetrates.".
