It is a book of short stories written for Children by Nersys Felipe winner of the Casas de las Américas Literary Prize.
The short fiction that flourished in nineteenth-century France has attracted relatively little critical attention compared with the novel. This study focuses on some key stories by major authors of contes and nouvelles from the late 1820s to the 1890s, taking as a starting-point, aspects of narrative technique as a way of exploring not just characteristic strategies of short fiction, but also the ends to which they were put: recurrent themes, and the vision of mankind. Each chapter looks in some detail at three or four stories, referring briefly to other tales for illustration. The underlying point that emerges from this study is that the interest of a tale lies in the telling, not the events. ;

“Till death do us part…” Seemingly innocent transgressions like squeezing toothpaste or leaving pee on the toilet seat lie in wait to trip up these characters, who become so stifled by their partners that they can’t wait for death to part them. Some stories in this collection end with cliffhangers, making room for self-reflection and numerous possible endings. These thirteen stories traverse various domestic issues that call for more meaningful steps than grumbling, as the Morgans, Olabisi, Kayode, Vera, and John soon find out. Ruffled butterfly wings are used as imagery for the delicate family ties of everyday people who are sewn together in marriage. Suspenseful, dramatic, romantic and dipped in an amalgam of Nigerian and Western cultures, these relationships pass through crucibles, with the couples spreading their ruffled, ripped mosaic wings to flutter and fly against all odds.

The collection of short stories "Pickled pumpkins" by Sasha Stanisic is an extremely compact, mature and skillful literary achievement in Macedonian literature. An achievement that, fortunately, will succeed in placing one of its neighborhoods, one of its suburbs, on the literary map of Skopje, which so far has not aroused special interest among any Macedonian writer. But that is only one of the other arguments for the value of this book.
