Description:



* Georgi Gospodinov - Time Shelter and other works (4 books)

GEORGI GOSPODINOV GEORGIEV (b. 1968)
is an award-winning Bulgarian writer, poet and playwright whose works have been translated into 25 languages. He writes complex narratives, based on the recent past of Eastern Europe and present anxieties across Europe and worldwide. His novel TIME SHELTER received the 2023 International Booker Prize, shared with his English translator Angela Rodel, as well as the Strega European Prize.

Gospodinov became internationally known following the publication of his NATURAL NOVEL (1999). Described by The New Yorker as an "anarchic, experimental debut", and by The Guardian as "both earthy and intellectual", it explores the life of a young writer in post-communism Bulgaria.

His second novel, THE PHYSICS OF SORROW (2012), inspired by Western clichés about the temperament of Eastern Europeans, follows the protagonist in the saddest country in the world. According to The New Yorker, "Georgi's real quest in The Physics of Sorrow is to find a way to live with sadness, to allow it to be a source of empathy and salutary hesitation." The novel received the Jan Michalski Prize and the Angelus Award.

Some smuggle cigarettes or alcohol, others weapons, but in THE STORY SMUGGLER (2016), the most dangerous contraband is carried by writers, as they surreptitiously move stories across borders. In twenty-five short chapters, Gospodinov explores how smugglers, writers and translators are all involved in transporting whatever may be desired, valued, missing, repressed, or forbidden. He adds a melancholic tone to his exploration by focusing on his childhood in Communist Bulgaria, and on the fantasies of other lives and other places that this childhood engendered.

His most recent novel, TIME SHELTER (2020), centers on a psychiatrist who creates a clinic in Switzerland to help people with Alzheimer’s disease. The clinic includes spaces that recreate past eras in intricate detail to help patients retain their memories, and the experiment proves so successful that the idea is taken up far beyond the hospital’s walls. It has been described by Nobel laureate Olga Tokarczuk as "the most exquisite kind of literature, on our perception of time and its passing, written in a masterful and totally unpredictable style."
