The table -- Snails, puddles, rain -- Moving house -- Uncle Henryk -- A miracle -- "In Dublin's fair city" -- Mina.
Stories from a Polish writer, mixing magic and realism. In Uncle Henryk, a boy and his uncle, lost in a snowstorm, come across a town where conflicts are settled by cockfights. In the The Table, a wife wants it thrown out the house because it once belonged to a German, while her husband defends the owner as a brave individual who fought the Nazis.
