Welcome to Litsy!

#marchwrapup. Got more audio in than normal as dog-walking weather returned and I went my first road trip in a long time. Nothing warranted five stars but there was much goodness. 😌

This is John Wyndham's first collection of short stories, published in 1954 and containing stories he wrote in the early 1950s. I especially liked the first and last stories, "Jizzle", about a naughty monkey and "More Spinned Against", about a spider with an interesting past.

Anyone who enjoys Wyndham's writing and story-telling ability will find something worthwhile in this collection.

The first thing that Ted Torby saw, when his reluctant eyelids had gathered enough strength to raise themselves, seemed to be a monkey, perched on top of the cupboard, watching him. #FirstLineFridays @ShyBookOwl
