The Five Jars

Book cover
It is a wood with a stream at the edge of it; the water is brown and clear. On the other side of it are flat meadows, and beyond these a hillside quite covered with an oak wood. The stream has alder-trees along it, and is pretty well shaded over; the sun hits it in places and makes flecks of light through the leaves. A book for children and the only novel by Montague Rhodes James a British mediaeval scholar, best remembered for his ghost stories. Being a peculiarly surreal fantasy, it tells of an amazing finding of the hero of a small ancient box and a strange world hidden from our own.
