The fruits of an eighteen-year tradition of Massey College’s annual Gaudy Nights, Robertson Davies’ High Spirits still delights and amuses to this day. Published as an e Book for the first time.In the Introduction to this collection of charming stories, Robertson Davies notes we all need ‘;ghosts as a dietary supplement . . . to stave off that most dreadful of modern ailments, the Rational Rickets.’ In one tale, Mr. Davies introduces the ghost of Henrik Ibsen; in another, he brings us face to face with a bust of Charles Dickens, whose ‘;scarlet lips . . . parted in a terrible smile’ and whose ‘;beard stirred in a hiccup of repletion.’ Sixteen other apparitions manifest themselves, each rendered with Robertson Davies’ special toucha bit of parody, a touch of true scarinessand all emanating from high spirits.
