    " "My mother went to visit our neighbor, Umm Bahaa, but refused to take me with her, on the pretext that women visit women and men visit men. So she left me alone, promising not to be gone more than a few minutes. I told my cat I was going to strangle her, but she paid no attention and continued grooming herself with her tongue." [After this setting statement] we meet the five-year-old narrator of The Hedgehog, who introduces us to his world: his house (with the djinn girl who lives in his bedroom), his garden (where he wishes to be a tree), and his best friend the black stone wall. This tightly told novella confirms that Zakaria Tamer remains at the height of his powers. The short stories that follow are economical and controlled. They deal with man's inhumanity to man (and to woman) and showcase the author's typical sharply satirical style." -- Book jacket.

    "Set in a fictitious Syrian neighbourhood called "al-Qaweyq," "Sour Grapes" is a compilation of 59 stand-alone short stories with underlying connections of theme, characters and perspective that knit the work together. Written in literary Arabic with sprinkles of Syrian colloquialisms, -all translated into English- the stories in this collection touch on themes as varied as gender inequality, incompetent governments and regimes, long-standing social customs, Western colonisation, abuse of authority and Syrian national identity"--
