Patch Word

Original Title: Patch Word

The narrator of this literary artefact, none other than a hat most recently named Athanasius Pernath, describes the adventures of the motley characters it has accompanied over the years. The story of this Genuine Panama Hat 58 takes the form of a compendium of things it has heard and perceived, while it also offers its opinions about the world and even the reader, who won’t be indifferent. Hence, if you, patient readers, dare to reach the last page, you’ll understand something you may not know yet: stories don’t only exist when someone tells them but, also and especially, when someone reads them.

Praises
