De stem van Sulina
Een lyrische roman over de geboorte van een moeder, zwervende zielen en de ziel van het zwerven, geschreven met de stuwende kracht van een wereldrivier.
Terwijl een donkere schaduw over de weerkaarten van Midden-Europa glijdt, reist een vrouw in een busje langs de oevers van de Donau, van de bron in het Zwarte Woud tot de monding in de Zwarte Zee. Welke stemmen stijgen op uit de rivier?
Archeologische opgravingen en eeuwenoude verhalen, confronterende vragen en dromen, lichamelijke transformaties en vergeten vrouwen geven richting aan de mentale reis van een jonge schrijfster die moeder wordt.

Encuentracosas: 44 objetos (in)usuales de cerca y lejos
Como sugiere su subtítulo, el libro Encuentracosas contiene historias sobre 44 objetos de cerca y lejos. La curiosa y variada selección, ordenada temáticamente, incluye sorprendentes hallazgos de todo el mundo: Botas de Bután, losetas de Barcelona diseñadas por Gaudí, copas de vino del País Vasco, un broche en forma de corazón de Sarajevo, alpargatas de los Pirineos, escarabajos del antiguo Egipto, un cubo de basura de Nueva York, un trozo de tela naranja de los muelles flotantes del lago Iseo, una campana de dragón eslovena, un mapa de Berlín del Este y mucho más. Al narrar las historias de estos objetos concretos, Ekaterina Petrova cuenta en realidad las historias de los lugares de los que proceden —Kustendorf y Katmandú, Liubliana y Luisiana, Belvedere y Bilbao, Selcuk y Central Park—, situándolos al mismo tiempo en un contexto lingüístico, cultural, histórico, antropológico o geográfico más amplio. Los textos, una ingeniosa mezcla entre cuaderno de viaje, ensayo y relato corto, están cuidadosamente elaborados y repletos de curiosidades, pero refractados a través de la perspectiva subjetiva de la autora, así como de su biografía personal como viajera, traductora y encuentracosas. La maquetación del libro, realizada con el ojo estético de Lyuba Haleva, una de las ilustradoras búlgaras contemporáneas más destacadas, capta de forma espléndida y humorística el espíritu y el carácter de los relatos. De esta forma, el propio libro se convierte en un objeto bello, placentero y alegre, para leer y releer; un libro que poseer y regalar.

Măi, fetelor (It’s Both Heaven and Hell Here. Moldova: a Century of Lived History)
There are few places across Europe which have had the tumultuous story of Moldova in the 20th and 21st centuries. My greatgrandmother, for instance, spent most of her life in the same village while living in four different countries: she was born in the Russian Empire, went to school in Romania, resisted collectivisation and eventually gave in during the Soviet era, and got retired in the independent Republic of Moldova. I share her story in this book, as well as stories of other people with different backgrounds I interviewed, in an effort to create a polyphonic view of Moldova’s recent history. Chronologically, the book starts with the 1903 infamous Chisinau pogrom and it ends with the 2022 refugee crisis caused by the full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Geographically, the stories are rooted in Moldova but they cover the whole world thanks to the processes of migration that characterised all of the communities described in this book — Jewish, Roma, Armenian, Moldovan, Ukrainian, Russian etc. — at different points during history.
