These stories are difficult a bit for me. Backgrounds of these are not familiar to me. Maybe that makes me difficult to understand. However, these are all quite interesting and it is a kind of thought-provoking book. My favorite story is “The Garden Party”. The story puts questions to us what is human happiness, life and important thing to us. Ikaros, (24 May 2009)
English language school in the heart of the Japanese Alps, and English language learners sharing their experiences online. Teachers post regular items about teaching, learning tools, events in the school, their day to day experiences living & working in a foreign country. Students post on whatever takes their fancy - book reports, festivals in home towns, postcards from business trips etc. A little Brit of England in the guts of Japan!

Ikaros,
ReplyDeleteGiven some of your life and death experiences, I'd be very interested to hear what your answers are to those questions!
When were the stories set, by the way? By the look of the cover, I'd say Edwardian? Don't know much but I love the dresses...
Why don't you come to my next "Garden Party"!
