Galsworthy’s book of studies and essays opens on the Italian coast at a pink inn among olives and cypresses, then ranges widely: sheep-shearing, riding in mist, a magpie on a hill, a distant relative, a bootmaker who cared too much about quality, and a moving memoir of a beloved dog. Short reflections on life, art and conscience are woven among the sketches.
Thoughtful, finely written prose from the author of The Forsyte Saga. Download the free EPUB.
