Produktbeschreibung

Author Trefor has taken inspiration from his two-year stay in a small South-West Bulgarian village to write Bread and Wine (Leb IVino), an eclectic mix of short stories. The stories reflect Trefor's response to his sojourn in Dolno Dralishte, whilst carrying a sub-textual message about change, faith and the retention of national identity. The title of Bread and Wine (LebIVino) derives from the old Bulgarian custom of hospitality to strangers; it is considered a great discourtesy if visitors to Bulgarian homes are not offered food and drink, and an even greater discourtesy if this offer is then turned down. "e;It was a lesson I quickly learned,"e;says Trefor, "e;and one that afforded me much pleasure, inspiration, and -I might add - several king-size hangovers!"e;Fans of short stories and MagicalRealist fiction will enjoy this collection of stories, which range from those inspired by the dark and bloody history of the 500-year-long Ottoman occupation, the folk-lore and onto those reflecting modern-day Bulgarian life; an eclectic mix from bawdy comedy to psychological bleakness. Trefor is inspired by the work of Salman Rushdie andAngela Carter.
