I recommend it in all seriousness. It is a treasury of lore about
owls, and indeed nightingales - though not alas pussycats.
Having made a medieval point, I will share a very modern chagrin with
you. By a severe reduction in food and strenuous employment of my
stoutness exercises, I lost a whole stone (US = 14 pounds)last week.
