EUPL Book Club on 'short stories' with Daina Opolskaite

Our September EUPL book club meeting spotlighted short stories collections. The book club read three EUPL winning novels: The hour of dusk (Dienų Piramidės) by Daina Opolskaitė (Lithuania, 2019), Breve teoría del viaje y el desierto (Brief theory of travel and the desert) by Cristian Crusat (Spain, 2013), and Има ли кой да ви обича (Is there anybody to love you) by Kalin Terziiski (Bulgaria, 2011).

For our discussion on the theme, we were joined by Daina Opolskaite, who spoke about her EUPL winning novel and how her love of short stories shaped her writing career.
