Time Shelter: An Exploration of Past, Present, and Future

- PRIA

ILLUMINATING THE INTERSECTION OF TIME AND LITERATURE Georgi Gospodinov

Georgi Gospodinov, the first Bulgarian author to win the prestigious International Booker Prize, takes us on a captivating journey through the complexities of time in his novel Time Shelter. Unraveling the collision of temporal dimensions that shape our lives, Gospodinov delves into the moral and ethical dilemmas of manipulating time and reflects on its intertwined relationship with nostalgia and perception.

A Milestone for Bulgarian Language and Literature

With his novel originally written in Bulgarian, Gospodinov's International Booker Prize win marks a significant moment for the Bulgarian language and literature. He hopes the recognition will open doors for other Bulgarian writers and inspire young talents to pursue their literary dreams. However, with newfound fame comes a challenge for the author in finding solitude for his writing, an essential aspect of his creative process.

Time's Lack of Harmony - Seeking Order Through Writing

Navigating the past, present, and future in Time Shelter, Gospodinov portrays the lack of harmony between these temporal dimensions, showcasing their constant collision. For him, writing serves as a refuge to cope with the deficit of the future and make sense of the chaotic world. Writing sets the world in order, providing clarity amid the tumultuous flow of time.

Time as Refuge and Danger

In Time Shelter, time is depicted as both a sanctuary and a daunting force. The past becomes a natural refuge amid the uncertainties of the present, but Gospodinov challenges readers to ponder the dark side of nostalgia. He explores the political manipulation of personal and collective nostalgia and how the past can haunt and become a nightmare.
