The stories in this collection invite you to an unusual journey - through the generations, their loneliness and their favorite music. In the early 60's the founder of the first jazz orchestra in Bulgaria made an illegal recording of his students playing Glen Miller. One can still hear "New Generation" around the former "Kravay" through someone's headphones. And some grown-up kids return to "Little Tequila" in Sozopol every summer...
All these generations - lost or uprooted - have never stopped talking. They know that silence is not dumbness, but a compromise between the desire to tell the truth and the need to save it. And that music is a story without a narrator, perfect and impossible. He shone and disappeared - in misery and splendor - like a giraffe in a glass with Bloody Mary.
