A collection of twelve short stories, "by a master, who, at his best, equals Chekhov and who seems incapable of writing a shop-worn phrase" (The Sphere, 4th April 1964). Not published in the USA. Post 8vo (21cm). 192pp. Original pale mauve-grey boards, blocked and lettered across spine in gilt; a very good copy in the Kenneth Farnhill dust-jacket, also very good barring a few faint marks and a couple of tiny nicks.
