Collected novelettes and short stories by Fazil Iskander
Published by: Turkey - Da Yayıncılık (2004), USA - Central Books (1972)

These qualities are also typical of his characters, most of them drawn from his fellow countrymen, ever a mixture of gallantry and guile, humour and hard work. -- R.Daglish
