Burraxki
18 short stories
about life and the way we have to face it. Setbacks and turmoils
come and go, like a sudden thunderstorm but their effects remain.
Extracts
from a review by Tanja Cilia.
"so
if the stories are in the first person; others tell of people with
whom the author empathises so thoroughly that we feel they must
have told him their story first-hand - such as the bitter critic
whose pen was his sword, but who could not stand his own defects
being 'mirrored'.
'Although
originally meant as a compendium of turbulent tales, the stories
in this book may also be used in PSD or Maltese literature classes,
either to to expound upon the themes within them, or to develop
the characters and create their background in creative writing sessions."
