      If anyone likes more folklorish stories, The Issa Valley is a really good read

      Within the last month or so I got around to reading Native Realm, which I found most interesting. I did think The Issa Valley a very good novel. Those who want to check Milosz out without committing to a long narrative might try one of his books of essays, for example To Begin Where I Am or Milosz's ABCs.
