A story by Slawomir Mrozek translated by KONRAD SYROF read by Kenneth Griffith
A city is besieged, it is not clear by whom: the storyteller becomes involved in a sinister way in the atmosphere of mock heroism and treason. This short story, like Siesta which was recently broadcast in the Third Programme, comes from a volume of stories by Mrozek called The Elephant.
