Compelling short stories with a good taste of ironic humour and drama. Some stories read like recognizable personal scenes as they would happen today.
History brought as psychological entertainment with no bad and good, making fun of nationalism and morals with a big middle finger. Works nice as a daily update for a small part of his work.
Proper modern translation in dutch, looking forward for eventually the other parts.
