In this very human and endearing collection of essays, Mottram shares with the reader his personal store of experience. Well-known and well-loved as a novelist, writer and chronicler of the secluded town of Norwich, Mottram is seen here as an essayist with a range of moods and affections, and his topics range from Norwich to novels, from literary figures to the experience of life.
