Reader's note

This wonderful book, Mortal Coils by Aldous Huxley contains five stories and was first published in 1922, close on the heels of Crome Yellow. The stories have a theme in common since they all tell of disappointed hopes. The best known of them is undoubtedly The Gioconda Smile, a miniature murder story with an ironical ending, which Huxley adapted in 1948 into a highly successful play. This wonderful book with make the perfect gift for a Huxley lover, or add a pop of pink to your own bookshelf.
