Au pays des couchers de soleil

William Illerbrun

Fables have their relevance, particularly when dealing with such delicate topics as politics. This is the story of a retired gentleman with a distinctly British demeanor who buys nine provincial flowers to be planted in his garden. He avoids the fleur-de-lis, which, however, doesn't avoid him. Eventually their attitudes towards each other soften due to the beneficial effects of a watering can.
