About the work
The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:
LibriVox recording of Balloons by Elizabeth Bibesco. Read in English by Beth Thomas; Jennifer Fournier; Jacquelyn Bengfort; Ryan Fry; Tony Addison; Doc Willett; David Olson; JudyDerby; heeheekitty Elizabeth, Princess Bibesco, was an English writer and socialite. The daughter of a British Prime Minister and the wife of a Romanian aristocrat, she drew on her experience in British high society in her work. Her talent is the compression into a few phrases of all the details of a situation, into a few pages the hopes and failures of a lifetime. These (very) short stories explore in a few precise phrases the hopes of newlyweds, the emotions of a widow, and all aspects of life between! (Summary by Wikipedia and Beth Thomas)
