A collection of stories by

 
 

The first complete collection of A. A. Milne’s short stories for grown-ups
**INCLUDES NEWLY DISCOVERED, NEVER-SEEN-BEFORE STORIES**

––––––––––––

Collected in full for the first time, Milne's short stories are an epiphany and show his renowned charm, concision and whimsical flair in all their brilliance.

He paints memorable scenes – from a children’s birthday party, to an accidental encounter with murder, and a case of blackmail – often with an unexpected twist. But he also deals in poignancy, from the girl who pulls the wool over her boyfriend’s eyes, to a first dance and first disappointment or family reunion and domestic dissonance.

Beguiling and evocative, Milne’s thought-provoking stories for adults will make you see his works for children in a whole new light.
