After a mock-apologetic preface addressed to the exacting reader, Aumonier offers nine stories of ordinary English lives. Among them are “A Source of Irritation,” about an old farmer caught up in the war, “The Brothers,” “Old Iron,” “Little White Frock” and “The Great Unimpressionable.”
Aumonier was one of the finest short-story writers of his generation, and this collection shows his humour and compassion. Download the free EPUB.
