How the elderly couple dealt with egomaniacs, kleptomaniacs, tractor-maniacs, and children who stabbed him and burned down their house are just some of the tales that David recounts with 'what is left' of his sense of humour and his 'diminishing stock' of faith in mankind. Read it and weep. Or laugh. Possibly both.
