Τα χαζά μπούτια
Στα Χαζά Μπούτια συγκεντρώνονται μερικές από τις πιο συναρπαστικές ιστορίες που διηγήθηκε ποτέ ο Βασίλης Βασιλικός. Ιστορίες με ερωτικά καλοκαίρια, με ερωτικές μνήμες, με οικογενειακές μνήμες, με πολιτικές μνήμες. Ιστορίες αγάπης και χωρισμού, ιστορίες αιφνίδιας χαράς και γλυκιάς μελαγχολίας, ιστορίες τρυφερές, αλλά και διεισδυτικές μέχρι τον πυρήνα των πραγμάτων. Κινηματογραφικός στην εναλλαγή εικόνων και της πλοκής, γοητευτικά δραματικός σε κάποιες περιπτώσεις, κυρίως όμως βαθιά ειρωνικός, αλύπητα σατιρικός και παράλληλα συμπονετικός προς τη χρονίως πάσχουσα ελληνική κοινωνία, ο Βασιλικός αποδεικνύει γιατί συνεχίζει να διαβάζεται μανιωδώς επί πενήντα χρόνια.

A native of the northern Greek island of Thassos, Vassilikos grew up in Salonika, graduating from law school there before moving to Athens to work as a journalist.

As an author, Vassilikos has been highly prolific and widely-translated. He has published more than 100 books, including novels, plays and poetry. His best known work is the political novel Z (1967) (English language ISBN 0-394-72990-0 or ISBN 0-941423-50-6), which has been translated into thirty-two languages and was the basis of the award-winning film Z directed by Costa-Gavras (with music by Mikis Theodorakis).
In 2008, Vassilikos was among to 41 other personalities of Greece that condemned the action of the withdrawal of Ersi Sotiropoulos's book Zigzag Through the Bitter-Orange Trees from the Greek school libraries, after the appeal of insurance measures by Konstantinos Plevris against to the Ministry of National Education of Greece for this issue. In 2001, Petros Tatoulis had asked the withdrawal of this specific book and he characterized this as pornographic due to the provocative sexual scenes that it contains

Ίσως η επιτομή μιας ανάλαφρης συλλογής διηγημάτων. Είναι δομημένο όπως ακριβώς θεωρώ θα έπρεπε να είναι ένα τέτοιο έργο. Διάφορες ιστορίες, με ποικιλία θεμάτων, χαρακτήρων και περιστάσεων. Μα όλα με έναν τόνο ευχάριστο, που να μπορείς να το διαβάσεις όποτε και όπου θες και να το προτείνεις στον καθένα. Χωρίς αυτό να μειώνει την αξία του κειμένου και του συγγραφέα.
