A new collection of A. A. Milnes short stories for grown-ups. Gathered in full for the first time, they include several never published before. They show Milnes renowned charm, concision and whimsical flair in all their brilliance.
He paints memorable scenes from a childrens birthday party, to an accidental encounter with murder, and a case of blackmail often with an unexpected twist. But he also deals in poignancy, from the girl who pulls the wool over her boyfriends eyes, to a first dance and first disappointment or family reunion and domestic dissonance.
Beguiling and evocative, Milnes thought-provoking stories for adults will make you see his works for children in a whole new light.
