“The chronograph of Dr. Cohen” is a short novel, aiming to show the life of a young Bulgarian lady of Jewish origin. This narration depicts the troubles and the metamorphoses which its main character passes through, to attain a spiritual catharsis. The book is about love in all its appearances. The story mixes visual poetics and cracked humor with a nostalgia for a wounded identity and the experience of unrequited loves, the memories of how they were lived and irretrievably lost...

Her second book with stories, titled “The Paradise of the End” (Exlibric), was presented in Hotel Molina Lario, Malaga, Spain in October 2020.
