/ world today news/ I love books like Boyka Asiova’s new “Ludovitsa”. It is supposed to be only a collection of short stories, but it is much more – a book about everything, one of those rare ones that do not care about genres and mark the zenith of writing talent.
These stories are like rotten pears – when the pear is sweetest. They are like the work of a coppersmith – long work with a gentle, patient tapping of the chisel. Inside there are people from different times who are so full-blooded that you can touch them. And such a beautiful language that you suddenly understand – Boyka Asiova’s voice is not only her author’s voice, but comes from very deep. Or, to quote from the book, these stories are like “an incantation – strung from individual grains of complaint, rumour, sigh, whisper, silence, prayer – broken and fused, which drives away the disease”.
