About this book
A note says that the title, The Goose Man, refers to the famous statue of that name in Nuremberg. The contents list chapters called A Mother Seeks Her Son, The Nero of To-day, Inspector Jordan and His Children, Daniel and Gertrude and Philippina Starts a Fire.
Marian climbs up the steep, dark stairs and rings the upstairs bell, and Theresa helps her sister unpack, avoiding Marian's eyes while silently considering how long her sister's visit would last. A section headed Philippina Starts a Fire says that Daniel and Eleanore had reached a stage of mutual silence and would meet on the steps and pass each other with a mere nod. A lean old man with kid gloves and a top-hat enters the shop, hurries up to Jason Philip and says in a cracked falsetto: How about the new publications? Anything very fine?
