[KS] book search for teaching

[Charles Montgomery]

Mike,

Look at the Asia Publishers three new collections of very short stories,
bilingual, and with author bios and critical response. These collections are
themed, and one of the themes is the war, with excellent stories like ³The
Suffering of Two Generations² and ³Land of Excrement² in the war theme.
Another of the themes is the post-war reality, which some responses here
have tossed in...

Here is set two on Amazon (I¹m not sure it is the set with the war stories,
but I¹m in a hurry^^).

The works can be bought in the set, or individually...
