Produktbeschreibung
A gentle invitation to a world where quiet acts of kindness shape the days and the heart learns to listen. Afterwards, And Other Stories gathers late Victorian Scotland into one intimate, enduring collection. This is more than a book of victorian short stories; it is a carefully curated scottish fiction collection that blends rural community life with moral tales, where humility and kindness illuminate the path through doubt and faith. The stories speak with warm humour and restrained sentiment, offering a humane mirror for readers of classic fiction and seasoned collectors of british literature alike. The tone is lucid and accessible, yet reverent in its respect for a time when belief and doubt walked hand in hand. Historically significant as a window into late Victorian Scotland, the volumes echo british victorian era settings while remaining surprisingly immediate and relevant to modern readers. Alpha Editions restores this cherished anthology for today's audience and for future generations, ensuring the wit, tenderness, and social nuance survive beyond the years of their first appearance. This is not merely a reprint; it is a collector's item and a cultural treasure, a preserved fragment of British literary heritage ready to be revisited or discovered by new readers who seek thoughtful storytelling. Whether you are drawn by gentle humour and sentiment or by the broader arc of rural life in classic British tales, this collection rewards both casual readers and serious collectors.
