Synopsis

Imagine a last will that reads like a child’s dream. A powerful man writes a testament that gives far more than money: pieces of life, memory, and imaginations for the people he cares about. This short, lyrical piece blends businesslike formality with soaring, poetic gifts that turn property into wonder.

In the opening pages, a man’s will unfolds through vivid, almost timeless scenes. The bequests range from fields and games for boys to star names for children, and from joyful landscapes for lovers to memory and poetry for adults. The prose balances brisk business detail with warm, imaginative prescriptions, inviting readers to see what a life stored in a will might become.

What you’ll encounter
- A formal document that doubles as a celebration of play, memory, and connection
- Rich, sensory imagery that transforms ordinary scenes into enduring thanks and tenderness
- A meditation on what truly lasts: shared joy, stories, and the world we leave behind
- A voice that shifts between legal exactness and lyrical reminiscence

Ideal for readers who like literary short works that fuse whimsy with reflection, and for those curious about how one man’s legacy can center on imagination and memory rather than money.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Leopold is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. This means that we have checked every single page in every title, making it highly unlikely that any material imperfections – such as poor picture quality, blurred or missing text - remain. When our staff observed such imperfections in the original work, these have either been repaired, or the title has been excluded from the Leopold Classic Library catalogue. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, within the book we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work.
