Humorous Deathless Snippets from a Reading Garret
A quirky collection of vignettes and quips begins with a child’s tale of snow and a dangerous stair tumble, then shifts to a boisterous sequence of mishaps and mockery. The narrative threads touch De Quincey lore, a century old telegram line, and streetwise witticisms about work, marriage, and schooling.
