Cover of the book with 19th Century Macedonian folk tales translated in English by Fay Thomev (R)

Fay Thomev is no stranger to the art of translation, in particular, Marko Cepenkov’s collected folk tales, sayings, customs and a vast array of beliefs, chants and dreams pertaining to 19th Century life in Macedonia during OttomanEmpire.


Her original publication, ‘19th Century Macedonian Folk Tales’, and her subsequent ‘Otherworldly Tales Collected in 19th Century Macedonia,’ will now be perpetually available to lovers of Macedonian folklore, captured at its best through Cepenkov’s masterful storytelling. Thomev delights in giving readers a rare look into the wit and humour of her people, whose cultural, social and spiritual activities, helped them survive the harsh realities of 19th Century Macedonia.
