If a novel is a long and torrid love affair, full of ups and downs and highs and lows, then a short story is merely a kiss from a stranger in the dark - a fleetingly experience that grips the heart, ignites the blood and lingers in the memory. The seven stories collected in this volume explore the world of darkness - the outer darkness which surrounds us and where all monsters live... and the inner darkness where all your secret demons dwell and fester undisturbed, feeding on your soul. Beware the truth contained within! Emil Minchev is born in 1984 in Sofia, Bulgaria, and has published six novels and a short story ... |

"Far from the Danube" is the story of an extraordinary woman who rescued a heavily wounded knight from a battlefield in northern Bulgaria and managed to return him to a less than grateful family in Normandy, just as the Hundred Years War was about to start. Set against the national and religious conflicts of the early 15th century this is a powerful account of a hazardous journey into exile and of a love between Maria Iskra and Gilles Guiton that flew in the face of contemporary mores, given that as a knight of St John, Gilles had taken a vow of chastity. Based on a recorded meeting between English King Henry V ... |

Книга за българите ...

Антология 10 български поетеси ... Не особено познато в Турция се оказва „явлението” жена-поет.

И нещо любопитно – когато приключва работата си, преводачът споделя в писмо до издателството: „Неописуема е болката ми от ... |
