Books Romain Gary Birds fly to Peru "Symposium", St. Petersburg, 2002 Most people only know about Romain Gary that he is the only author who managed to win the Goncourt Prize twice: under his own name and under the pseudonym Emile Azhar. However, Gary's novels, about 30 in total, are, to my taste, far inferior to his short stories, 16 in total. If you want to know what "sardonic" is, read this book: a desperately dark, suffering mockery of humanity - that's what Gary's stories are.
