Review # 1 was written on 2021-02-14 00:00:00 Duane Cummings I'd put this book under Must-Read category. Sure, we can all read the Universal Declaration of Human Rights online and memories the Articles. But the short stories in this book, one per Article, drive the point home and make you realize how so many people in this world are not given these basic rights which are actually a privilege for these people. Some stories that I can never forget - 1. The Long Ride Back Home by Mohammed Naseehu Ali 2. Innocent Passage by Ariel Dorfman 3. The War on Women by Kate Atkinson 4. A Special Boy by Banana Yoshimoto 5. Where I keep my faith by Helen Dunmore 6. In the Prison of Repose by Paulo Coelho 7. Warriors of the Sky by Mahmoud Saeed 8. The moon above his head by Yang Martel 9. Sola by Chimamanda Adichie 10. An internet baby by Xiaolu Guo 11. The Shed by Alice Ping 12. The classroom by Olja Knezevic I picked up this book because I was looking up one specific author (I forget who, now), but I got such good content out of this, I am grateful!
