If a novel is a long and torrid love affair, full of ups and downs and highs and lows, then a short story is merely a kiss from a stranger in the dark - a fleetingly experience that grips the heart, ignites the blood and lingers in the memory. The seven stories collected in this volume explore the world of darkness - the outer darkness which surrounds us and where all monsters live... and the inner darkness where all your secret demons dwell and fester undisturbed, feeding on your soul. Beware the truth contained within! Emil Minchev is born in 1984 in Sofia, Bulgaria, and has published six novels and a short story ... |

"За него никой не знае нищо. Той предпочита да остане такъв - невидим, незабележим, встрани от комплиментите и бурните реакции, на разстояние от суетата, която е сграбчила ежедневието ни. Защото знае кое е по-важно за него - да бъде съпруг, баща, приятел. А поет в света на другите. А как бих искал всъщност да го видим повече хора, за да му се усмихнем, за да му благодарим. За да поздравим автора, а да не притесняваме човека. За да поговорим за езика на философията, която той смело демонстрира в книгата си "Три стръкчета нежност". Притеглящо и запомнящо се заглавие, зад което като нанизи се движат думите, с ... |

Avers е заглавието на първия разказ и на цялата книга. Думата означава лицевата страна на монетата. Морийз, героинята, оцелява и се освобождава чрез своите песни. Като ангелите, като птиците - казва авторът в интервю за радио France Culture. Това е гласът на свободата, казва той. Разкази за нежеланите. Защо нежелани, а не невидими? Невидими не е точната дума, по-точно е нежелани, казва авторът в същото интервю - защото другите ги виждат, но ги избягват. Гледат през тях, сякаш те са прозрачни. Не знаят имената им, не се стараят да ги запомнят. Или ги наричат с други имена - еднакви за всички. Или пък им слагат обидни ... |

Умален модел на космически кораб Sith Infiltrator - "Star Wars". Той е предварително боядисан и за сглобяването му не е необходимо лепило.

The equipment is operated by the rare and costly stygium crystals that are only obtainable on the Aeten II planets in the outer rim, so that hardly any such camouflage systems are found on other spacecraft. In addition to its six concealed laser cannon, the Infiltrator carries a ... |
