“The Dog” is a novel about man’s inner world, about the man-dog’s world… Through the eyes of the protagonist, Vasil Kinov displays the image of our time – quite vicious and often hopeless. The man-dog imitates life with caricature willingness and causes laughter, sadness and fear. The book seeks the hopes and hesitations, which were left in people’s souls after the transition; it depicts the separation with the heavy burden and the search of new opportunities.
Vasil Kinov (1940-2010) was a Bulgarian story writer and novelist. He wrote seventeen novels, some of which were translated into nine languages, including Polish, Czech, Greek, English, and French.
Vasil Kinov translated several Polish authors and for his work he was awarded with the distinction “Honoured Polish Culture Worker”.
