About this book
Eight pieces fill this volume of satires by John Galsworthy, from the title story Abracadabra to Grotesques, with Ultima Thule, Studies of Extravagance, For Love of Beasts and Reverie of a Sportsman between them.
The first story is told by a narrator looking back on Minna, a neighbour's daughter who hid from strangers as a small child. He follows her through dances, picnics and settlement work to the day, at twenty-six, when she is about to marry a Quaker.
