It is an anthology of six short stories about which Emeritus Professor Carlo Fonseka has expressed the following opinion 'These stories are throbbing with life and held my interest and attention. Some of them have the flavour of Jathaka stories in the searing exploration of impulsive human behaviour'. The six short stories in the book are titled 'My Little Princess, The Poet and the Princess, Four Parallel Lines, The Bchelor and the Married Man, The Charcoal Hunter and The Loner and the Undemanding Companion'.
