Love, fantasy, humour, athleticism, eccentricity, homelessness, generosity, skulduggery, deceit and even a bit of satire can be found in this varied collection of short stories. A Kind of Magic begins with a highly unusual love story... if you can call it that... and goes on to cover a multiplicity of circumstances that perhaps only a writer of advancing years can claim to know about. The stories vary in length, pace, type and nature of outcome, and the reader is left to guess how much is based on experience and how much on pure imagination.
