Title: Not engaging
Product review: Perhaps this book became dated, as several of the short stories seem to have been intended as political satires, which may not be so relevant anymore.Perhaps there is a problem with the translation, as it was suggested by one of the reviewers here.Or perhaps it's just a question of personal taste. The fact is, I didn't like it. It doesn't seem to have been written with the intent of engaging the reader. It's rather a collection of very short stories - 36 in 175 pages - in which even the humor and the witticism did not convince me.I would have difficulty in pointing out a single very good story, in my opinion. Some of them I found OK, and some I read without any pleasure.
