opinion from another Bulgarian
2 Nov 2005
Format:Hardcover
I like so much what the other Bugarian said about "Under the Yoke". It is most probabaly a 7-grade student(13 year-old) because this is the first time when we read the novel in Bulgaria.
I have read the book twice and the first time I read it was when I was 13 and I didn't really understand it...it was just a story about suffering and revival,a story about a determination to overcome opression that i could not really grasp. However, i read it again in highschool and only then could i see how deep and real this novel is, how sincere and important it is. Vazov is the Patriarch of Bulgarian literature and his words are a precious heritage that we all carry in our hearts and souls.
I will buy this book now as a present for my English teacher in the US and I would advise everybody who is Bulgarian to do the same. This book is worth reading and I hope that more people will have access to the the depth of the Bulgarian soul and the endless source of hope and life that has been sustaining our nation throughout the 13 centuries of its existence.

Opinion from a Bulgarian
27 Oct 2005
Format:Unknown Binding
This is the first Bulgarian novel and also the best.It represents our 500-year bondage in an extremely realistic and detailed point of view.Well it's a bit difficult for me to understand it,but I'm sure I'll interprete it better when I grow up.Read about the greatest part of the Bulgarian history.
