A very curious collection picked up at a bazaar in Turkey. The foreword, afterword, and footnotes are all in German whereas the stories are all either originally or translated into English. An enjoyable collection with some low hanging fruit selected, and also some interesting selections. However, I can't recommend it to someone who isn't a German speaker who wants to read Indian short stories in English with assistance.

Hat mir sehr gut gefallen. Vor allem sind die Geschichten sehr unterschiedlich. Von Werken, die dem magischen Realismus zuzuordnen sind wie “The Prophet’s Hair”, bis hin zu sehr kühl-realistischen Erzählungen sie „Doktor Salaam“.

Das Buch wird für mich eine Erinnerung an meine Reise nach Paris Juni 2022 bleiben, auf der ich es an Flughäfen, in Transportmitteln und in Parks und Cafés und abends im Hotel gelesen habe.
