Résumé du livre
"A young boy listens to two lovers' conversation in the next garden... A middle-aged churchwoman entertains the local reverend, gives a piano lesson, and pays a macabre visit to the guest in her cellar... Two men, meeting at the funeral of a third who had loved them both, try to find their way into each other's life... These and eight other stories illuminating incidents in people's lives that evoke sometimes the disturbing, the familiar, or the ideal, and always the hauntingly memorable"--Page [4] of cover.
