Description
xFirst published in 1996. Written by acclaimed contemporary writers, all winners of literary awards, these stories present deeply moving human dramas. What emerges from them is a picture of a somewhat sad people - sad because they have gone through sorrowful experiences of one kind or another. But they are people who transform their sufferings into blessings through their warm humanity, whether it be a soldier, a domestic servant or an office worker.
