The Proper Procedure and Other Stories

About this book

Theodore Dalrymple, almost singlehandedly, revived the languishing Essay and in so doing became Britain’s answer to Montaigne. In this, his first foray into the Short Story form, he proves himself a rival of Anton Chekhov. His many devoted fans will be delighted. _________________________ Some truth can be told only in the form of fiction. That is why I chose to write these stories. -- Theodore Dalrymple
