Notwithstanding : stories from an English village / Louis de Bernieres. by De Bernières, Louis. Harvill Secker, 2009. Call #: FICTION DEB Subjects Village communities -- England -- Fiction.   National characteristics, British -- Fiction. ISBN:  9781846553301 Alternate title:  Not with standing Description:  275 p. ; 23 cm. Notes:  Linked short stories. Summary:  Casting his mind back to the village in southern Surrey where he grew up in the sixties and seventies, but plagued by a novelist's inability to stick to the truth, Louis de Bernieres brings us in "Notwithstanding" stories of a vanished England which will delight readers of his much-loved novels. The English village was a place where an old lady might dress as a man in plus fours and spend her time shooting squirrels with a twelve bore, or keep a vast menagerie in her house. A retired general might give up wearing clothes, a spiritualist might live in a cottage with her sister and the ghost of her husband, and people might think it quite natural to confide in a spider that lives in a potting shed. De Bernieres' characters roam through the book, appearing in each others' stories and painting a picture of an entire community. Genre:  Short stories. Linked stories.
