When you are in Bulgaria right now, you should not miss the book launch of the Bulgarian translation of “The Descent of the Lyre”, a well-crafted historical novel about a musician from the Rhodopi mountains in Bulgaria, by Will Buckingham.
Buckingham, who is also a reader in Writing and Creativity, has a very nice blog that gives an overview about his wide range of interests:
The book launch in Sofia takes place on April, 8, 18.30, at Greenwich Book Centre, Vitosha Blvd. 37.
There will be also two events with the author in Varna on April 10, and 12, organized by Lecti Agency:
Will Buckingham: The Descent of the Lyre, Roman Books, Kolkata London 2012
Уил Бъкингам: Произходът на лирата, Enthusiast, Sofia 2014
A detailed review of the novel will follow later.

The book is great! It was extremely interesting to me as a native Bulgarian to read it. And I think if you didn’t know the author is a foreigner, you wouldn’t guess he is. There is everything in the book – an interesting story, some mythology, unexpected turnings of the plot and multicultural company of characters.
Very well said, Valya! Thank you for your opinion and congrats to your nice blog!
Very nice post. I just stumbled upon your weblog and wanted to say that I’ve really enjoyed surfing around your blog posts. In any case I’ll be subscribing to your feed and I hope you write again very soon!

Hi there would you mind letting me know which hosting company you’re utilizing? I’ve loaded your blog in 3 different internet browsers and I must say this blog loads a lot quicker then most. Can you suggest a good hosting provider at a honest price? Cheers, I appreciate it!
Hello, my hosting company is webhostinghub.com. Up to now I am very satisfied and they also offer good online support in case there is a problem.
Hey there would you mind stating which blog platform you’re working with? I’m planning to start my own blog in the near future but I’m having a tough time deciding between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your design seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something unique. P.S My apologies for getting off-topic but I had to ask!
Hello, I am using WordPress which offers quite easy access to blogging. My layout is a bit minimalist, but they have different themes and options according to what you have in mind. I am not an expert but I suppose also the other platforms offer you similar options.
