Description: From back cover: "Young Edward Allison returns home to his family in England, tragically wounded in the last days of World War II . . . . Edward's struggle to come to terms with the horror of the war leads him to seek the truth he desires in realms of fantasy. And so begins the storytelling, the festive soirees at which the Allisons and their guests spin one tale after another."
