A Bit of Singing and Dancing
2 journalers for this copy...
A collection of short and poignant stories about people marginalised by their, sometimes tragic circumstances.
This is not a gloomy book, however. It encourages you to see joy in even the small things in life (Mr Proudham at the funfair in Mr Proudham and Mr Sleight) and this is not a book about banality and mediocraty.
The writing is vivaciouly colourful using only sparse use of simile and metaphor. It is the characters that leap from the page. The narrative is rich without being flowery.
