site.btaBook About Bosilegrad Sparks Outrage in Local Community

The presentation of Ivan Mitic's monograph A Book about Bosilegrad - Notes from the Past provoked violent reactions in the Bosilegrad public. The event took place in mid-November in the ceremonial hall of the Cultural Centre in Bosilegrad, in the Western Outlands. It provoked indignation among the attendees, including teachers, journalists and scholars. Rather than serving as a rallying point around cultural memory, the book's author and content led to fierce arguments and criticism.
