Odd Jobs: An Anthology Of Idioms

Will a watched pot ever boil? Can too many cooks spoil the broth? Is it possible to build Rome in a day? How does Hell compare to the fury of a scorned woman? Have you ever wondered what happens to all those pennies offered for your thoughts, or where a cloud's silver lining goes? Find out in this quirky collection of short stories inspired by well-known English idioms. From the secret agency that mends tears in the fabric of time, to the entomologist who discovers that one of his butterflies is responsible for the end of the world. From a quiet English street that settles its disputes through siege warfare, to a village where good deeds are being rewarded, with disastrous consequences.
