A dreamy husband working on the garden of a Hampshire cottage, slowly failing his wife and children, opens this 1922 collection, which carries him into the war. Around it come tram girls taking revenge on an inspector, a blinded soldier and his wife’s friend, a lonely farm in the snow, and a doctor who pulls a desperate young woman from a pond.
