Age-tanning to inside DJ. Red cloth boards. Gilt debossed lettering to spine. Blind, with author's initials, to front board. Translated from the French by Norman Denny.

Included is the tale of the father who did his son's homework; the miraculous tale of the paintings that afforded physical as well as spiritual nourishment; the blunt tale of Josse, the hard-bitten ex-soldier who fought with his stingy sister for the affections of the little boy next door; and the sad but pleasant tale of the racing cyclist who never came in anything but last."
