This unparalleled work includes over eighty pages of Albanian wise sayings and proverbs, carefully translated into English by the editor, a native of the Albanian language.
Additionally, the book includes commentary, a brief introduction of the history and culture of the region, and appendices such as a glossary of terms, a historical timeline, and a transliteration chart.
The wisdom found in these sayings is profound, but so is Flamur Vehapi's thoughtful commentary.
I commend him for preserving what otherwise might have disappeared: a treasure trove of cultural sayings that will enrich and fascinate every reader.
I'm not Albanian, yet I repeatedly nodded and smiled at how accessible, meaningful and transforming these sayings are.
