Visually the exterior appearance is exceptional,and even internally,the book is also in an exceptional condition/state of preservation and presentation for a book of its age. It really is an exceptional,exemplary copy for its cleanliness and brightness and a welcome addition to the Fay Weldon short stories canon.
Brilliant stories from the hyper-real world of Weldonia,where self-deception rules; where a bully can believe he's a victim; a blackmailer sees herself as a healer; and an artist's slave be sure she's free.
Travel in space and time: meet Miss Jacobs,the silent pyschoanalyst,who receives the confessions of saints and sinners; discover the heart of a nuclear scientist,forcibly retired, who does his hopeless best to resist the wiles of a self-seeking,stalking,beautiful New Age journalist - in fact all human life is here,and still in amazingly good heart,considering.
