STREET WITHOUT A NAME is Guardian Paperback of the Week

February 18, 2009

STREET WITHOUT A NAME, Kapka Kassabova's acclaimed memoir of her childhood in Bulgaria and her recent return, has been picked by Nicholas Lezard as a Guardian Paperback of the Week.

'A beautifully structured book: its closing pages take you back to the beginning, by which time you will know and feel for Bulgaria much more deeply than you did when you started. The country, you will learn, seems to have turned up remarkable women regularly during its history; it strikes me that, in her quiet way, Kapka Kassabova could be one of them.'
-- Nicholas Lezard, The Guardian
