Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Me and Peter The unnamed "Me" in this unusual memoir is one whom I knew even better than I knew Peter. After many years of separation, during which I had almost forgotten of his existence he came to me in my little cabin as I idled a few glorious summer months by the sea, in an almost unknown inlet of the Gulf of Georgia, in the Far West. At the end of a long conversation on the days of auld lang syne, he rose and placed a manuscript in my hand. "You remember Peter," he said, "and you learned to love him. But, with the days of our boyhood, Peter is gone. Read this over at your leisure, and, afterwards, do what you will with it." I read it, and read it again. I have smiled, I have laughed, and I have wept; not so much at what I found in it, as at the recollections it brought back to me: what it made me remember of the things I had long, long given up thinking of - some pleasant, a few sad, but all mellowed by the passing years. Maybe you, too, will remember Peter - sometimes real, sometimes the spirit of him only - who comes into all our lives and leaves us the better for having been with us.
