Ти вече го привлече на Странносбор. Здрасти пак! :)
Сега остава да се доредя до него...

Thank you for your interest in our website, Betty. :) Right now, you can read what the Human Library is here. (It's the link that says About (Where am I?) at the top of our home page.)
Other than that, the vast majority of the posts are in Bulgarian because they talk about the Bulgarian books and contests that we do. Well, there's the occasional letter from Peter S. Beagle, too. :D
Also, we've compiled an anthology of Bulgarian speculative fiction translated into English:
ФантАstika Almanac
However, we haven't found a publisher yet. If you're curious to read it as an ARC, just let me know.

Thank you, Pam!
Actually, we haven't published any translations since 2014, and the only non-Bulgarian authors in our series so far are Peter S. Beagle and Theodore Sturgeon. We found out that we can't reach enough readers to justify the translation expenses and the royalties. :(
If this ever changes, we'll keep your recommendations in mind. We wanted to publish Stephanie Meyer's The Host, but another publisher beat us to the rights. We've also set our sights on authors like Lois McMaster Bujold, Susan Cooper, Robin Hobb, Becky Chambers, Tove Jansson, Maria Semyonova, Astrid Lindgren, Katherine Paterson, L.M. Montgomery, C.J. Cherryh, Diana Wynne Jones ....
As for our Bulgarian writers, Genoveva Detelinova, Maria Gyuzeleva, Velichka Nastradinova, and Mell (whose book is just about to come out) are all women. As are more than half of the people in the current setup of the Human Library. However, the author whose gender identity I like best is this one. ;) Lights amidst Shadows consist of about two dozens young writers, boys and girls in roughly equal parts.

I'd visit Fantasia from The Neverending Story and talk with as many of its inhabitants as possible. Especially the two sphinxes, Atreyu, Falkor, and (if she wishes so) the Childlike Empress. (On second thought, I don't really need to speak with her. It will be enough to stand and smile with her.)

Зависи колко си я обичаме. :D
И какви нови ще открием по-натам...
(Но специално с теб споделяме и „Божествената комедия“ плюс Хари Потър. Само че „Пет приказки“ на мен са ми най-любими от трите. :)

(Това към коментарите на личната ми страница ли трябваше да отиде? :)
Но отговорът е винаги „да“. Щом е Тери Пратчет. :D
(Има и по-пълна версия, на английски: http://kal.zavinagi.org/?p=92 ;)
