***New Book***

We are extremely proud to bring you the English edition of Alek Popov's novel "Mission: Turan. Census of the Ancient Bulgarians", translated by Traci Speed.

It is thanks to Péter Krasztev that we got to know Alek and his marvelous and funny novel. We had been working closely with Alek on the English edition up until his untimely death in March.
Since then everybody from translator to editor from publisher to former colleagues and friends have pulled all their effort together to make this edition worthy of Alek's memory.

“These new… ancient Bulgarians,” Slavyanski began hesitantly, still not clear on the terminology. “It seems to me that we should take steps to integrate them. This will have a positive impact on the demographic situation.”
“And on your ratings!” the professor added slyly. “Just think, thousands of new voters!”
“No, that’s not quite what I had in mind,” the president said, hurt. “I don’t look at people that way. For me, they’re human beings above all else.”
Yeah, sure you don’t, thought Dokuzanov. If you ask me, you don’t care about anything else. If only you did!

We at CEEOL Press are deeply saddened by the passing of our author, Alek Popov. In the last few months we have been working with him and a team of talented publishing professionals (translator, editor, designer) to bring out Mission Turan in English. He was involved in every step and was very happy how the book was shaping up. We will make sure to bring his wonderful book to readers all around the world. Rest in peace, Alek!

Alek Popov, one of Bulgaria's top writers, died today aged 58. He was the most clear voice of a new generation of Bulgaria post-Communist writers who did not shy from teasing the opportunism, laziness, hypocrisy, lack of morals and fake patriotism of modern-day Bulgarians. He was widely popular, mostly for his novel Mission London, one of the best satirical works this country has seen in the 21st century. His works were translated into several languages, including English.

Alek was a great friend of Vagabond and contributed to this journal since its inception.

He is survived by his wife.

Find in the first comment a link with an intro into the work of Alek Popov by Vagabond's former editor Lucy Cooper and an excerpt from Mission London by Alek Popov, published in Vagabond, in 2007.

"The fast of Yom Kippur is still on, it will end tonight, and for me it coincides with a sad date: the anniversary of the death of Uncle Rudi Karpelesz, who has been gone for a year.
Without him, without his insight, his courage and his mischievous complicity in seeking alliances, The Recipes for a New Beginning would never have been what it is. It was he who set the tone, the timing, of an era that can still be retrieved by living memory and testimony.
He began with the following sentence: the survivors were in their twenties at the time, and anyone younger than that who was taken away and survived can hardly remember what had happened in the kitchen.
In the September issue of Pesti Sólet, I commemorate Leopold Karpelesz. The little boy living in the lumberyards of Gyergyószentmiklós, the newsboy of Brasov Newspapers, the grand master of hremzli, who was taken away with his large family and returned alone. On the way home, he was accompanied by our Nobel Prize winner Imre Kertész, but they lost sight of each other.
Uncle Rudi's story is just one episode in the story of the persecution of the once thriving, almost completely destroyed Jewish community in Transylvania."
Kinga Király
