Story0
Frank Richard Stockton (1834-1902) was an author and humorist, best known for a series of fairy tales that were hugely popular during the latter part of the 19th century. Stockton avoided the moralizing common to children's stories of the time, and instead humorously poked fun at the abuse of power, greed, violence, and a host of other human flaws. A griffin (a beast that is a combination of eagle and lion) comes to a town that has his likeness above the church door. Having never seen himself, the griffin becomes entranced with the statue, but his presence frightens the villagers....

Frank Richard Stockton ( 1834-1902), umorista americano, racconta con leggerezza e ironia una incredibile storia che inizia con un naufragio, e finisce con lo stringersi di legami di affetto e di amicizia. Il tutto in un clima leggero e surreale, che ha il potere di riconciliare con la vita e di apprezzare le piccole cose semplici. Cornice musicale di Kevin MacLeod.

Originally published in 1882, in The Century magazine by Frank R Stockton, this short story has become an allegorical expression for an unsolvable problem.

Roland Clewes home was a modest bachelor pad, a small house simply furnished yet sufficient for his needs. Just half a mile from the station, it was bordered by the sprawling complex he referred to as his Works. Within its walls, laboratories and large machine shops buzzed with activity, where skilled workers crafted an array of innovative metal and material contraptions. Among the various structures stood a striking round tower, its smooth iron walls soaring thirty feet high and devoid of windows, illuminated and ventilated solely from above. This was Clewes private workshop, a sanctuary few ...
