Iva Anastasova
The present text is an analytical observation on Emilia Dvoryanova’s novel – “Passion or the Death of Alice”. It emphasizes the role of mirrors (and windows) in it, specifically their dysfunction. The strangeness of the surfaces is seen as a blurred boundary between reality and the imaginary.
