Lyubomir Levchev
Lyubomir Levchev’s Ashes of Light provides a broad spectrum of this important poet’s work. This volume of new and selected poems testifies to the continuing vibrancy of this most critically acclaimed and most popular poet of Bulgaria. Although a major voice protesting against oppression, he is also known for his poems about love and death and the mystery of existence. His is an orphic voice, tender and prophetic. A leading figure from the “April” generation of poets that came into prominence after de-Stalinization in 1950, Levchev has published over 20 volumes of poetry and won numerous awards for his work, including a Gold Medal in Poetry from the French government.
