Krátky popis
This Christmas, bask in these 'diminutive masterpieces' (Guardian)
by the English genius behind Lolly Willowes. 'One of our finest
writers.' Neil Gaiman'One of the most shamefully under-read great
British authors of the past 100 years.' Sarah Waters'Diminutive
masterpieces ... Hand yourself over to be enchanted.'
Guardian'Extraordinary, lucid wildness.' Helen MacDonald'Glinting
perfection' The TimesDecades after her divorce, a lady returns to
the village of her tumultuous marriage.A railway carriage hosts a
charged schoolboy encounter. A murder raises fears of blackmail. A
woman waits anxiously in a cafe before eloping to Paris.Another
steals a friend's kitchen knife. In these bittersweet tales, the
author of Lolly Willowes reveals her mastery of the short story,
celebrated by the New Yorker for decades. Sylvia Townsend Warner is
a tragicomic chronicler of the heart's entanglements, from
marriages and affairs to widowhood, and a champion of outsiders,
whether single women, the elderly or wartime refugees.Witty and
subversive, her stories meld tradition and transgression, with
secret sins and fetishes as much a feature of English life as
eccentric aunts, country houses and parish churches.
