In the award-winning collection "From the Same Glass & Other Stories", Michel Fais develops and focuses on the geography of the (living) dead and dying, on symbiotic (and symbolic) transformations, on aestheticism and male anorexia, marital entrapment and extravagant friendship. Fais uses the theme of Death as the centre around which he binds together his "stories" into a whole that is no mere sampler of forms, long and short. The symphonic elaboration of parts and the whole is derived from well-constructed minimalist accounts, heart-rending monologues, a one-act play script, and a series of apparently journalistic notes. Through Fais' eyes we see, in these modern, convulsed Balkans, a side of Greece which is not without its own traumas of cruelty, revenge and profound indifference. His creations mark him as one of the smartest architects of prose narrative in modern Greek, while at the same time his engaging, word-excited medium, learned as well as vernacular, places him squarely in the tradition of a long line of writers world-wide, from Chekhov to Bellow to Roth.
