Opis

"William Sansom, born 1912, is one of the younger British authors much sought after by the leading literary periodicals. This volume of short stories is a good example of his art, and his style which is peculiarly his own. In this collection he uses the allegorical form to express the sub-conscious reasons for human action and reaction, which he sets forth with clear-sighted observation and fine distinction. His stories have also something of the enchanting quality of the fairy-tale, sometimes macabre, wholly fascinating, and clothed in a rich and exquisite prose. Interspersed among these stories are others dealing with actual events, such as The Wall, which describes fire-fighting during the war in all its matter-of-fact horror. Mr Sansom writes with his senses and imagination, and with his intelligence always at full stretch."
