Heart's Wings & Other Stories
Written over a span of 40 years, this collection features the short stories of British writer Gabriel Josipovici. Unique and intriguing, the narratives take place in a variety of settings-including a seedy London nightclub in the 1960s, a brothel in Hamburg during World War I, and an airport in Bukovina in 1942-and explore not only Shakespeare's mind as he writes Twelfth Night, but also Jorge Borges' dreams of Finland and the Kalevala, a 19th-century work of epic poetry. Josipovici's clear and simple prose will captivate academics as well as fans of highly original writing.

- "Gabriel Josipovici's stories play hide and seek with the reader. Whether they take place in a seedy London nightclub in the sixties, in a brothel in Hamburg during the First World War, in the fevered world of Shakespeare's mind as he writes Twelfth Night or in that of the dying Borges as he dreams of Finland and the Kalevala, in an airport outside Berlin, in Bukovina in 1942 ... one thing is certain: you are never quite where you think you are and what is happening is never quite what you think is happening. No matter how short the story? and many are no more than two or three pages long? by."@en
