Description

A unique insight into Bulgarian life...


With performance in mind, Tales of Ivan Levsky is a compilation of short stories. Written in order to reflect Bulgaria's oral storytelling tradition, this book makes for a lively and fascinating read.


Fans of short stories and magical realist fiction will enjoy this collection, told through the eyes of the fictional storyteller, Ivan Levsky. These stories range from those inspired by the dark and bloody history of the 500 year long Ottoman occupation, to folklore and the stories that reflect modern day Bulgarian life.


Originally written to form his doctoral thesis, Trefor Stockwell spent two years writing Tales of Ivan Levsky while based in a small Bulgarian village. His collection forms an eclectic mix of tales, including the bawdy comedy of Samovila and the psychological bleakness of The Experiment. Within this anthology, the reader will find a tale to suit every mood!


A truly funny, thought-provoking and genuinely different collection of East European tales.
