It was almost unbelievable speed with which he read. I remember an episode when I was just familiar with Bob, as the "force" everyone to call. Falls phone and hear his voice. "Pyrrhus, like I be doing a favor. Tomorrow morning will bring the car to be repaired. Is it possible to take the workshops I be coming, advance tapes go to your office, then I keep my car and come pick up after work? "The next day, I headed to the workshops.

In short, he was a great friend of the Albanians. During lunch and dinner most beautiful moment was when Bobby ran from his stories. It was an excellent performer and the narratives were startling ends. After a year together were known, he goes to London to give a lecture. Enters a store that sells CDs and tapes asks if they have any tape with Albanian songs.
