It's not clear whether General Von Schmitten notices the black crows as he wonders around Auschwitz, contemplating the contents of that evening's dinner. Long Boret certainly notices them whilst picking his son up from school on the day the Khmer Rouge take power. As for Masala, driving through Baghdad, he likens the Apache helicopters circling above to a murder of crows. Short Histories combines fact with fiction, comedy with tragedy, truth with farce, and alacrity with melancholy; at times poignant, at times irreverent. With so much war, and so much worth dying for, watch out for the circling crows.
