Themerson, Stefan2012
Book
"The Table that Ran Away to the Woods" tells the tale of a writing desk that one day grabbed two pairs of shoes, ran downstairs and took flight, escaping into the countryside with its owners in barefoot pursuit. First published in a Polish newspaper in 1940, this is a story of a table which rejoins the forest from which it originally came, taking root, and growing branches.
