The Fountain Pen Plus Five is a bouquet of half a dozen stories with bizarre twists, guaranteed to keep readers glued till the last page has been turned. Pandit recounts the story of an urchin who sold movie tickets at a premium for a living, or so the world thought, and his passion to help friends even by risking physical abuse. But then, by his own admission, he risked himself every single day. The Heiress is the tale of a middle aged housewife and her relationship with an old widower, scandalous to few, innocuous to others; was she an angle or a demon? ORC4851 is the story of a teenager obsessed to learn driving and how he spontaneously uses an opportunity to fulfill his goals and grows up in the process. The Owl is a dark tale of sexual promiscuity, infidelity, and vendetta. Brown and Grey is the story of a retired family man getting sucked into the virtual world of cyber sex, threatening to destroy his peace and family. The Fountain Pen is the outrageous tale of a woman and the mystery behind her eminence in the world of mathematics, her association with a peddler and the vintage fountain pen that forever changed her life.

While big families were commonplace a few decades ago, not many can boast of having five sets of twins and five single births. However, the Burge family from Pierceland, Saskatchewan could. In Five Plus Five Makes Fifteen, Barbara Gonie, the fourth child in the family, shares how her farming family managed to survive in a two-bedroom house without running water, electricity, or indoor plumbing. With honesty and humour, she describes the trials and tribulations of having to share a bed with several siblings, eating tinned Spork “meat”, and never worrying about having a playmate. In addition to providing details about life in the Prairies in the forties and fifties, Barbara offers insight into how growing up in a loving, hardworking family can shape an individual to make good life choices and pass on strong values to the next generation. A consummate storyteller, she takes her readers from the days when clothing was sometimes made from flour bags and a dozen children might share the same bathwater to modern times when her grandchildren want for nothing and she is able to soak in a hot tub and reflect on the fact that what is important in life really hasn’t changed – love, family, and doing for others.

The fountain pen as we know it today developed over thousands of years, from the simple stylus used for cutting marks into clay tablets, to the brush, through the reed, the quill, and the steel-nib dip pen, and finally to the self-contained fountain pen. The advent of electronic communication of the written word has failed to dim the appeal of the fountain pen, and names such as Parker, Waterman, and Sheaffer remain household names. Covering the complete history of the fountain pen, this guide offers useful advice on how to build a collection and where best to look for fountain pens, from car trunk sales to the internet.
