Dar al-Ilm lil-Malayin in Beirut has brought out the book "Little Things," a collection of stories by Miss Samira Azzam, and literary circles received it with an eagerness long in the waiting; for the author has practiced the writing and the translation of the story and mastered its modern arts, and from the first, readers were struck by her smooth, engaging style and her psychological treatment of delicate subjects that quiver with feeling and emotion.
