Here is an eclectic set of stories that range from comic to ironic. Three are compliments to novels. “By Special Request” is an alternate ending to “A Handful of Dust.” “Incident in Azania” returns the reader to “Black Mischief.” The title story, “Charles Ryder’s Schooldays” precedes “Brideshead, Revisited.”
