        Menuet za kitaro/Minuet for Guitar

        by Vitomil Zupan

        Minuet for Guitar is an intense exploration of the horrors of war, of morality and of historical forces propelling men this way and that. Using his life experiences for much of the action in the novel, Zupan introduces us to Jakob Bergant Berk, a man lost in two places and times. Slip-sliding between occupied Slovenia in the 1940s and a Spanish resort in the 1970s, we move from harrowing wartime guerrilla fighting to Berk’s curious encounter with Joseph Bitter, a former German soldier, during vacation in Spain. In the war, Berk is an apolitical non-conformist swept along by events over which he has little control, and some thirty years later, still traumatised by his wartime experiences, he tries to make sense of his memories in discussions with his old enemy Bitter. Once rumoured that it was used by the CIA as a manual for guerrilla warfare, Minuet for Guitar is a powerful examination of war on par with Céline’s Journey to the End of the Night, a modern Slovenian classic filled with philosophical ruminations and told in Zupan’s casual, ironic and even seductive voice.

        The Parrot and the Merchant

        by Marjan Fouladvand

        The present book is a re-creation of one of Rumi's famous anecdotes. The distinctive feature of this book is that a coffeehouse painting is used for its illustration. Coffeehouse painting is one of the Iranian painting styles which is implemented by oil paint. One of the applications of coffeehouse painting is in Naghali (narration). Naghal (a narrator) is someone who recounts Iranian myths and epics in verse and prose with the help of music and slides of coffeehouse paintings live to the audience. The tradition of Naghali (narration), which is registered as an intangible cultural heritage in UNESCO is one of the oldest methods of Iranian storytelling. The parrot and the merchant, with its special illustrations, seems to be the same Naghali (narration) who has been written this time and turned into a book. A merchant living in distant lands has a beautiful talking parrot that he is very interested in. This parrot has been with him all the moments of the merchant's life and all this time he has been imprisoned in a silver cage with a golden bar. The merchant, who has to go to India for trade, asks all his relatives what souvenirs they want. When it comes to the parrot, it says, "If you go to the forests of India and see other parrots that are free and live happily on the trees, ask them what I should do with this grief of loneliness and confinement". The merchant goes to the forest and conveys his parrot message to the Indian parrots. Upon hearing this, one of the parrots falls from the tree and dies. The merchant returns regretful and upset and describes what he saw to his parrot. Upon hearing this story, the merchant’s astute parrot also falls from the gold bar and dies. The merchant opens the cage with tears and grief to get the parrot out. Unaware that the parrots have participated in making a clever plan.
