Seeing Things at Night

A quirky collection that feels like a late‑night newspaper you might pick up for a quick read, this book weaves together essays, observations, and a whimsical tale set in a knight school. The author’s voice is playful yet thoughtful, offering snapshots of everyday curiosities and cultural commentary that linger long after the page is turned.

The centerpiece story follows a lanky, reluctant student named Gawaine le Cœur‑Hardy, whose lack of spirit in the jousting arena leads the headmaster to a surprising solution: training him to slay dragons. With a mix of earnest lectures on dragon lore and lively practice sessions, Gawaine discovers an unexpected talent for confronting the fantastical beasts, all while the school’s faculty debates the ethics of such a dangerous curriculum.

Through humor and imagination, the work invites listeners to consider how unconventional challenges can reveal hidden strengths, making it a delightful listen for anyone who enjoys clever prose and a touch of medieval adventure.
