His passage into manhood, at twelve, was determined by his ability to hold a huge, heavy sword over the neck of a puppy without dropping it. During the war Kasimir was a soldier, and later a spy, and then in 1945 he came to Britain with only the clothes on his back and a pencil, but with one pencil man can make picture of his own good fortune . In 1980 he moved to the Swiss Alps with his dog Anna Karenina III. Following the unsolved mystery of his disappearance, his family was sent a wooden chest of correspondence. There were letters of advice to his nephews and nieces, patents for inventions, desperately sad love letters, a baffling series of reviews of motorway stops between London and Edinburgh, his notes on Common Mistakes in English , and references to a new companion, Marjorie Petigrew ( MARGARINE/MARJORIE - Marjorie is very kind woman next door.
