След повече от 30 книги, преведени в България, в настоящия дневник, Ерик-Еманюел Шмит за втори път (освен в Нощта на огъня ) прави жест за читателите си: повдига завесата към своя пълнокръвен вътрешен живот и външно обкръжение - семейството, отношението с баща му и средата, начина му на живот. Макар поводът да е тъжен - смъртта и траурът за майка му, Шмит успява да издигне безутешността си, преработването на скръбта в осъзнаване на дълга за щастие, който тази светла жена му завещава като урок по живот, в който има страст към изкуството, чувство за хумор, култ към радостта.

A pocket sized book - 10 x 15.5 cm. ... Throughout his career, Charles Dickens often turned his hand to fashioning short pieces of ghostly fiction, and began the tradition of "the ghost story at Christmas".

A pocket sized book - 10 x 15.5 cm. ... Hans Christian Andersen was the profoundly imaginative writer and storyteller who revolutionized literature for children.
