Memories and Vagaries

1930. More sketches and stories from the author of The Story of San Michele. Readers of that book will come across several old acquaintances in this volume, all in their same old clothes, for they have nothing else to put on their backs. My friend Archangelo Fusco, the street-sweeper of Quartier Montparnasse; the Salvatore family; Don Gaetano, the organ-grinder with his shivering monkey; and others. Contents: For Those Who Love Music; Toys from the Paris Horizon; Monsieur Alfredo; Italy in Paris; Raffaella; Mont Blanc, King of the Mountains; Menagerie; Zoology; A Cry in the Wilderness; Political Agitations in Capri; The Dogs in Capri; Soeur Philomene; When Tappio was Lost; La Madonna del Buon Cammino; Porta San Paolo; and Instead of a Preface.
