Жетварят (The Reaper)

Жетварят (The Reaper)

by Yordan Yovkov

В малкото село Люляково се сблъскват грозно човешката алчност, омраза и жажда за власт. Ала в душите на враждуващите все още има път за светлината на Иисуса – светлина, която преобразява чрез чудото на Неговата икона: кой е Жетварят, който благославя жетвата на благото зърно в душата и изтръгва плевелите на злото оттам – за това разказва с думи от златна пшеница и ведросини небеса майсторът на българската словесност Йордан Йовков, водейки читателя отвъд страстите и земната суета, през страданието на пробудената съвест, до победата на истината и доброто.In the tiny village of Lyulyakovo fiercely clash human greed, hate and lust for power. However, the souls of the adversaries are still open to the light of Jesus: the light which transfigures through the miracle of His Icon: who is the Reaper, Who blesses the harvesting of good grains in the souls and uproots the tares of evil from there: this is what the master of the Bulgarian literature, Yordan Yovkov, relates with words of golden wheat and azure skies, taking the reader beyond the passions and mundane dust, through the suffering of the awaken conscience to the final victory of truth and good. (Summary by Euthymius) Read in Bulgarian
