Inhalt:
This excellent collection of 26 stories charts, as Giles Gordon says in his Introduction, 'the shedding of the skins of Empire'. In their varied ways the stories also deal with English character and class, with differences in culture, with matters of the heart, with hope and hopelessness, and with the shadows of war.
