F. Powys' editor, concludes his preface in a way that would be difficult to better, 'They (the stories) should all be read slowly. Powys is not a literalist; his words convey more than their face value. These stories treat of the general and unalterable, with subtlety of thought and feeling, and with simplicity of presentation. Wisdom and humour are embedded in them. They reveal the infinite mystery, the fluid inconsistencies of life. They are delicate, wiry and human. 'God's eyes' are 'a-twinkle'. But the main business is the incalculable doings of that oddity Man.' \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn addition to \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eGod's Eyes A-Twinkle\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e, Faber Finds are reissuing the following T.
