Michael Lackerbaye. Abkhazian Stories. Sukhum, , 2009.

You have in front of you a book by the outstanding writer Michael Lackerbye, called ‘Abkhazian Stories’. The author was an Abkhazian, and he was born in Abkhazia. That’s why, before giving you a brief biography and description of the book’s contents, I’d like to set out in writing some pre-history.
