"Чистосърдечна, това е първата дума, която ми идва на ум за поезията на Илиян Любомиров. Искрена - без да е елементарна, рязка - без да е груба, тя притежава едно огромно качество: да идва от сърцето - нещо, за съжаление, все по-рядко срещано в книгите на утвърдените вече автори. Появата на Илиян, по-известен като Августин, в литературната среда я направи доста по-шарена и жива, внесе смут и движение. Нощта е действие и с цялото безгрижие на забавляващия се и търсещ човек той се чувства в свои води в нея. Това е книга за любовта и нейните демони, изпълнена е с много чиста радост, но я има и болката от всяко ... |

I hope the book will find a ... |
