The new narrative non-fiction book MY SONG by Georgian writer Zaza Burchuladze is a “romance”, an ode to the sacred relationship between an artist and a listener. It is filled with the sound of music. The act of reading is like listening “noveli- zed music” switching on the famous soundtracks in our own memory. This book is the search for peace and a piece of homeland that can never be taken away from you.

new publication

Serbian translation published by Russika

The twenties of the 19th century. In Greece there is a war for independence from the Ottoman Empire. The revolutionaries have many sympathisers throughout Europe who are willing to voluntarily defend the old culture and fight to preserve the old greatness. This is what they are called: Philhellenes – lovers of the Greeks.

Leonid Yuzefovich’s historical novel PHILHELLENES, told in the form of letters, diary entries and mental conversations of absent heroes, focuses not only on the Philhellenes of the Urals. Numerous people and representatives of different nations and social classes come to word, which paints a multi-faceted picture of a bygone era.
