I'd been trying to express what I've gained in 24 months of reading, weekly, a book in translation when I happened upon this stellar collection of stories from many world languages.
Kalpana where would we be without you to pull these gems off the shelf in the Saratoga library? You’re like a spice trader returning from foreign lands with books rather than turmeric. Love the idea of this international sampler (in translation) and I’m adding it to my library now. Many thanks for another great find!
Ah, I love that description of the work I do!!!! Thank you for reading, Peter. This has been such a wonderful find….words without borders in a world defined by fences and fortresses.
The book doesn’t appear to be on kindle. I’ll have to buy the paper version! I may have forgotten how to tuen actual pages. Right to left then flip, right? Wish me luck!
This sounds like a wonderful collection! I'm happy to find it in my university library and am looking forward to reading it. Thank you for the recommendation. :-)

Knowing you, you’ll make this into one hilarious post, my friend. Waiting to read it.
Ha. Hadn’t thought of that! But I will now. Thanks for the content contribution.
