Why do we love something or someone is not a question we often ask ourselves. It is difficult to answer. Perhaps this is because love is a feeling that is not easy to catch in words. And that is why the book in front of you, that asks the question - Why do I love Bulgaria, makes you curious and especially because a foreigner has made the effort to answer this question. Hans Wissema is not a stranger to Bulgaria and Bulgaria is not a stranger to him, for several reasons. Some of the reasons you will understand when you read the book or perhaps you have already read his book (in Bulgarian translation) "Siberian ...![](/b-images/quad-transp.gif) |

Historical novel. ... The historical plot encompasses the period between 1840 and 1885. The crossing of the paths of people of different nationalities knits together the entire novel. Bulgarians, Romanians and Serbs support each other in their struggle for independence. They meet diplomats and the kings of European monarchies in order to obtain entreaties and favorable attitude towards nascent Bulgarian uprising and the Serbian-Turkish War. And so the geographical borders of the novel prove to be infinite. Britain with its "eternal and perpetual interests", is portrayed; France, torn apart by internal ...![](/b-images/quad-transp.gif) |

A collection of classic Bulgarian poems, selected and translated by Christopher Buxton . ... Bulgaria lies at the south east tip of Europe and Bulgarians are painfully conscious of this, particularly in the context of their 500 year subjugation by the Turkish Ottoman Empire. Their history before and after this subjugation has its glorious and inglorious aspects, typical of every country's history. It is a story of resilience, bravery and faith alongside darker themes of betrayal and massacre.
