by Bogdan B. Rusev (Author), Ekaterina Petrova (Translator)

Come to Me details the experience of coming-of-age in 1990s Bulgaria, in the wake of the Soviet Bloc's collapse and the country's transition to parliamentary democracy.

Rusev's novel delves into the drinking, drugging, partying life of Bulgarian youth of the period, juxtaposing dramatic social and political changes with young Bulgarians' efforts to find distraction, escape, and even salvation in intoxication, frantic activity, love, and emigration.
