"Всеки път, когато чета Здравка Евтимова, се замислям за силата, която притежават нейните женски персонажи, за това колко непримирими са те, колко наситено земни са, като същевременно създават впечатление и за неземност." Кели Луче, писател и редактор на литературното списание Electric Literature (САЩ) "Красотата, както знаем, се появява навсякъде, особено там, където никой не я очаква, и с упоритост, ирония и милост героите на Здравка Евтимова не се предават на отвращението, а се борят с него. Уникална възможност да прочетете нещо прекрасно." Габриеле Отавиани, Convenzionali (Италия) "Здравка ... |

His night shows were something anticipated and appreciated. This continued for years. In the dark hours of the night, when the ghostly creatures of human fears and fantasies usually came to life, Vlad led the audience through the devil's curves with his restless, vibrating ... |

"The history of the Jewish ethnicity and its material culture are inseparable from Bulgarian history and culture. Regardless of the preceding series of conscientiously carried separate studies on the topic of the fate of local Jewish communities and especially on the issue of synagogues as their most prominent artistic creations during the long centuries of exile, the "last word" in that respect was not either said or written until now. Professor Jan Assmann of Heidelberg University says: "The cultural memory procures "breathing air" to the world that is too narrow for the everyday realities ... |
