Introduction by JEREMY TREGLOWN
"In his daily walks through London," notes Jeremy Treglown in his
Introduction to this collection, "Pritchett watched and listened to
people as a naturalist observes wild creatures and birds. He knew
that oddity is the norm, not the exception." This finely attuned
sense, coupled with an understanding that nothing in life is
mundane, is what makes these stories so immensely enjoyable.
Drawing on a vast treasure chest of writings, Treglown has selected
sixteen of Pritchett's gems, including "A Serious Question," which
makes its debut in book form here. Featuring some of the best work
from a long career, this new compilation of Pritchett's brilliantly
compact stories illuminates his legendary skills.
