Многото стаи на сърцето е история, която дописва обикновения делник и с оперна страст го превръща в магически реализъм. Дария и Богомил се срещат в лятото на живота си. Той е важен и вечно зает адвокат, свикнал да командва всички наоколо и нещата да стават по неговия начин. Тя е разведена, физиотерапевт с вълшебни ръце и огнен нрав. Първата среща е служебна, ала в страстта, която лумва помежду им, няма нищо делово. Любовта им е знойна като тропическо лято и упоителна като магически реализъм. Но никоя извънмерна любов и страст не може да устои на времето и ежедневието. Дария заминава за Мексико, а страниците на дневника & ... |

"В новата поетична книга на Йорданка Белева е вписана особена чувствителност към времето, отминалото, пропуснатото в момента. В стихосбирката заслепява аурата на цивилизационната забързаност. Бързащият човек е белязан от неизречено слово, ранен от безвъзвратно загубено общуване с любим човек. Да запълни бялото квадратче на изпуснатия момент е страшно изкушение за Йорданка Белева. Тук тя ще види траурна лентичка, криволичеща етимология, крайчец на фанатизъм, призрак след зачертана идеология. Неусетно аорист е подменен от бъдеще време в миналото, за да се отвори място в езика, където да не се чувстваме чужденци." ... |
