#1 March 15, 2010 Kinna Seventy Thousand Assyrians – William Saroyan "I’m kicking off my Short Story Mondays with a review of William Saroyan’s Seventy Thousand Assyrians. William Saroyan (1908-1981) was born, and raised in California, to Armenian immigrants. In the opening paragraph of the story, he writes : “I hadn’t had a haircut in forty days and forty nights, and I was beginning to look like several violinists out of work. You know the look: genius gone to pot, and ready to join the Communist Party.

Assyrians have had a rough go for quite some time. |
