Мода и модерност в българската литература от 20 -те и 30 -те години на XX век. ...

This book is the result of several journeys from Sofia to Prague in the 1990s. It's based on the notes I kept during my travels.

Sometimes Prague is here, sometimes it is there, and the same is true for Sofia."Where would you like to go? Out into the world. It's not a question of the direction, but of the journey itself, ... |
