Reviews
"[A] searing, heartfelt novel. This book is rich, enmeshing the personal with the political and historical, told in strange and vertiginous language that seems fitting for a tale of such passion." - Publishers Weekly (starred review), Praise for East of the West "Penkov's teeming stories accomplish in phrases what lesser writers take chapters to convey . . . A collection of triumphs." - Los Angeles Times "One of the most exciting debut collections in recent memory . . . Funny and sad and wonderfully natural." -John Freeman, The Boston Globe

Synopsis
Stork Mountain tells the story of a young Bulgarian immigrant who, in an attempt to escape his mediocre life in America, returns to the country of his birth. Retracing the steps of his estranged grandfather, a man who suddenly and inexplicably cut all contact with the family three years prior, the boy finds himself on the border of Bulgaria and Turkey, a stone's throw away from Greece, high up in the Strandja Mountains. It is a place of pagan mysteries and black storks nesting in giant oaks; a place whereevery spring, possessed by Christian saints, men and women dance barefoot across live coals in search of rebirth. Here in the mountains, the boy reunites with his grandfather. Here in the mountain, he falls in love with an unobtainable Muslim girl. Old ghosts come back to life and forgotten conflicts, in the name of faith and doctrine, blaze anew. Stork Mountain is an enormously charming, slyly brilliant debut novel from an internationally celebrated writer. It is a novel that will undoubtedly find a home in many readers' hearts., Stork Mountain tells the story of a young Bulgarian immigrant who, in an attempt to escape his mediocre life in America, returns to the country of his birth.

    Good price and as described. Four days between shipping label creation and receipt by USPS. Could have been a little faster.

    MY ADVICE, DON'T BUY FROM THIS SELLER! They did not send the item I bought. It was NOT AS PICTURED WHEN I PURCHASED. It was old not new, less quantity than I ordered, for the wrong machine, badly packed, and the box was stained and crushed. It cost me $20 extra to transship to the Caribbean (total $105) & they insisted that to get base $85 refunded I had to return the junk they sent which costs $100 to get there by the ebay deadline. Their error. My loss. Did me out of $85. Buyer beware.
