Four novellas/short stories translated from German into English for the first time. "The Twilight" An old woman decides to end it all, but not before telling a few home-truths to her husband. "The Last Child" Dead souls become angels that do the work of taking souls to and from the earth. But what happens when an angel is sent to retrieve the soul of his infant brother? Will he be able to do it? Will his mother stop him carrying off her last child like all the others? "The Tale of the Rustling" A fable of how the sounds of nature came into the world. "The Shadow" A man's matter-of-fact reaction to his wife's death triggers a series of rumours amongst his fellow villagers. Hermann Stehr (1864-1940) was a Silesian author of over thirty novels and novellas. He was awarded the Bauernfeld Prize (1910), the Fastenrath Prize (1919), the Schiller Prize (1919), the Rathenau Prize (1930), the Wartburg Rose (1932), the Goethe Medal for Art and Science (1932) and the Goethe Prize of Frankfurt-am-Main (1933), and appointed as a founding member of the Prussian Literary Academy (1926).
