Joseph Cowley

Do You Like It and Other Stories

In this collection you'll find not only stories of "love," from teenage to nonage, but also "strange" stories, of children plaing a deadly game in the title story to the weird adventures of a clutch of explorers in "Kalimundoo." Note: Some of these stories also appear in "The Night Billy Was Born."
