COMPLETE SHORT STORIES

Sinopsis de COMPLETE SHORT STORIES

In this complete collection of his short fiction, Robert Graves demonstrates his incredible range, from the descriptions of an unhappy life at boarding school in 'The Abominable Mr Gunn", to the evocative Majorcan tales of 'Esta en su Casa' and 'The Lost Chinese'. Also here are the charming letters of young Margaret in '6 Valiant Bulls 6', the autobiographical war story of 'Christmas Truce', and the Roman tale 'Honey and Flowers', while Graves explores mysticism with the supernatural tale 'The Shout' and the wittily haunting anecdote 'Bins K to T'. On the themes of love and war, myth and history, these pieces illustrate the brilliance of Robert Graves in the short-story form.
