What made this a pressing task in 2001 was that not only did these attacks produce some 3000 deaths (many as horrible as can possibly be imagined), the destruction of two of America's largest ... |

"Повдигам се на пръсти да целуна челото на настъпващата нощ, косата ми да стане нежно черна, луната да покаже своя брод." Бояна Николова "Още преди десетилетие се срещнах със стиховете на младата поетеса Бояна Николова. Тогава началото ме впечатли със своята свежа оригиналност и близост до естествените звезди.

The sequel, Three Men on the Bummel, reunites the three friends for their "Bummel" ("roaming or wandering& ... |
