The Burning Mirror

by Suhayl Saadi

Saadi's collection covers everything from Glaswegian Asian gangsta stories to themes drawn from various trans-Mediterranean cultures, from the philosophising of a spirit trapped in a bottle to the everyday tribulations of a Catholic evangelist, from a searing portrayal of brick-making villages in Pakistan to a Pointillist love story set amidst the late twentieth-century Balkan wars.
