The book features selected works by Yordan Yovkov (1880-1937), a classic Bulgarian short story writer and novelist of the period between the two world wars. Yovkov's stories of peasant life and military experiences show a superb mastery of prose and deep insight into the Bulgarian mind. He had a meditative temperament, and even his expansiveness was driven by a sense of power and enormity which could be achieved in a state of pure contemplation. Thanks to Yovkov's contribution, Bulgarian literature acquired a high artistic form and won the right to exist in the highest realms of the intellect. His remarkable talent as a storyteller turned the most insignificant thing into something wonderful.
