- Summary:
- "Ashes of Light" provides a broad spectrum of Levchev's work. This volume of new and selected poems testifies to the continuing vibrancy of this most critically acclaimed and most popular poet of Bulgaria. Although a major voice protesting against oppression, he is also known for his poems about love and death and the mystery of existence. His is an orphic voice, tender and prophetic.
- A leading figure from the 'April' generation of poets that came into prominence after de-Stalinization in 1950, Levchev has published over 20 volumes of poetry and won numerous awards for his work, including the prestigious 'ordre de chevalier des arts et letters' from the French government.
