Book description
In the selection of her stories from 1932 to 1977, the author casts a
kind but piercing eye on human quirks and passions, as well as
chronicling the events of Elfland. Born in Harrow (1893-1978), Sylvia
Townsend Warner published seven novels, four volumes of poetry, a volume
of essays and eight volumes of short stories. She lived most of her
adult life with her close companion Valentine Ackland in Dorset and
Norfolk.
