A note on the short story -- One. Riddle -- Two. The God stealer -- Three. Tong -- Four. Dama de Noche -- Five. Progress -- Six. Magic -- Seven. Gangrene -- Eight. Waywaya -- Nine. Of crabs and fish -- Ten. A walk with my grandson -- Eleven. Olvidon -- Twelve. Puppy love.

This book is the idea of my daughter Jette, who is also my superb editor. These twelve short stories are memorable to me because they are, in sense, so much a part of my personal experience. Writers write from their lives- this is axiomatic, not so much because their lives are ignited by adventure and romance.
