Grey Parrot and Other Stories

This volume contains a careful selection of the very best stories from Jacobs's 150-strong repertory, and includes well-known standalone pieces such as `The Monkey's Paw', as well as accounts of raucous dockside dalliances and tightly woven tales of poacher Bob Petty's crimes against the unlikely cast of an Essex village.

Acest volum contine o selectie atenta a celor mai bune povesti din repertoriul lui Jacobs, cu 150 de piese, si include piese binecunoscute de sine statatoare, cum ar fi „Lapa maimutei”, precum si relatari despre rautele siretlicuri de pe docuri si povesti strans tesute despre crimele braconierului Bob Petty impotriva distributiei improbabile a unui sat din Essex.
