A short story in the Isabel Dalhousie or "Sunday Philosophy Club" series which is a favorite of mine. This story is between "The Uncommon Appeal of Clouds" and "The Novel Habits of Happiness". It's about Isabel's 20th class reunion and how many people's temperaments still haven't changed over the years. A cute, quick read.

A too-brief visit with Isabel. I have to confess that I'm not sure I understood the conclusion of this story, but I enjoyed it nonetheless.

Delightful short story

Delightful. Recommended to fans of the Isabel Dalhousie series. As its meant to be a short story it has a quick arc and tidy resolution... Or does it?

Enjoyable, if somewhat moralistic short story. Full of philosophical comments.

Beautifully read by Karlyn Stephen.
