Yarns from Oman

At the beginning of his 60th year, on an impulse, Michael Kokkinn decided to take up an offer to lecture at the Sultan Qaboos University in Oman. It turned out to be a year full of pain and joy ending with a hurricane which nearly destroyed Muscat. Along the way, he made great friends and came to love Oman and its people. This is a series of eclectic yarns written during that year, 2006 -2007, in Oman.
