Synopsis (Credit: Back cover)

Two short novels: a charming pastoral legend of old Liechtenstein is balanced by an account of the war-torn love affairs of an American airman stationed in the Midlands during the forties.

The two subjects could scarcely be more dissimilar. But both bear the unmistakable stamp of Paul Gallico's unique gift for telling a story, and for celebrating life — even in the midst of the most ordinary, even sordid, reality.

Mijn man vond dit boek in de trein tussen Rhenen en Utrecht. Geweldig om eens een wild boek tegen te komen!
Ik laat het morgen verder reizen, op naar nog een melding hoop ik.

Het boek wil graag snel weer op pad en neemt straks de vroege trein. Goede reis, boek!
