Summary

"Stacy Aumonier was profoundly in love with life, and impregnated through and through by curiosity about life and its manifestations. All types were fish to his net; and he has given us the fruits of his passion for existence with a deft and always interesting fidelity. He is never heavy, never boring, and never really trivial and can't he write?" John Galsworthy.

The stories are: "Miss Bracegirdle Does Her Duty", "Face", "One Sunday Morning", "A Source of Irritation", "Where Was Wych Street", "The Bent Tree", "The Great Unimpressionable", "An Adventure In Bed", "Little White Frock", "The Spoil-Sport", "The Funny Man's Day", "Old Iron".
