Bulgarian literature (translated and untranslated)

Books for my favourite season of all! These books contain themes of derailment and delusion, transitional periods, a slow descent into darkness or obscurity, the taboo and the monstrous, autumnal aesthetics, turning inward, a slowing down, or a midpoint between life and death.
