Nevena Dishlieva–Krysteva | Fathers Never Go Away - Bulgarian Authors
This is a collection of stories about our fathers, who, although physically absent, are in fact always present.
These poetic essays create a book about life, death, and loss; about happiness, which is always deeply personal; about the great lessons of life, and about communication between generations.
In addition to building a scattered but convincing portrait of life from the years of World War II, through the Cold War, and to the beginning of the 21st century, the stories in the anthology also possess high literary value and artistic power.
And although they carry elements of history and national psychology, their messages are universal.
---------------------
“This is a book that you read with a lump in your throat, through the magnifying glass of tears . . . It’s a book about the sudden end of childhood, regardless of how old you might be. It’s about all of us who are silently carrying the unbearable thought of becoming orphans ourselves. And about the relief of once again confirming that death doesn’t exist and fathers never go away. These stories about the Bulgarian father—and the character that he is—also reveal Bulgaria’s untold history of the past half century. A very personal and moving book.”
