Три лини для Марії

Each story in this collection is a small yet big story of an ordinary person whom no one might ever have noticed on this earth. In a few strokes the author builds a three-dimensional picture of a life: the rustle of reeds, a fish splashing in a pond, falling apples, creaking old doors, a sigh, a muffled laugh or a sob, and smells both heavy and fleeting. In that picture each person appears with all their beautiful and ugly traits, and the seemingly minor plots open onto larger questions.
