“Тесла, портрет међу маскама” ускоро пред америчким читаоцима

У суботу 22. фебруара Српски културни клуб при бостонској цркви Свети Сава отворио је свој програм књижевних вечери ексклузивним гостовањем Владимира Пиштала, који је за роман “Тесла, портрет међу маскама” добио Нинову награду за роман године, као и награду Народне библиотеке Србије за најбољу и најчитанију књигу. Ова књига је постала култна међу српским читаоцима и доживела је шест штампаних издања, као и звучно издање у интерпретацији глумца Петра Божовића, а продата је у више од 20.000 примерака.

.

У завејаном Бостону Пиштало је напунио салу. Највећи део питања публике односио се на роман „Тесла, портрет међу маскама”, који је преведен на десет језика и већ је ушао и у читанке. За неколико месеци треба да буде представљен и америчким читаоцима у издању издавачке куће Граyњолф Прес.

У културном центру бостонских Срба велико интересовање је владало и за Пишталове култне романе „Миленијум у Београду”, „Венеција”, као и за збирке приповедака. На вечери су продате све књиге наручене преко океана за ту прилику!

Emmanuel

The Only Begotten and Firstborn among Many Brethren

by Bishop Athanasius Yevtich

In Emmanuel, the second anthology of Bishop Athanasius' articles to appear in English, His Grace explores themes of Orthodox Christology, Soteriology, Ecclesiology, and Gnoseology. How can we know Who God is? How can we know who we are, as human persons created in His image and likeness? How can we become one with Him? Bishop Athanasius examines these and other foundational questions in depth in this volume, drawing from a wealth of Scriptural and patristic sources. In discussing diverse theological subjects, he always returns to his overarching theme: the communion that man can have with God through Jesus Christ the God-man, within Christ's Church and above all in the Holy Eucharist. His exquisite and unique way of engaging the reader in mutual dialogue, with the living Eucharistic experience permeating his every thought, instills in the reader a burning desire for that communion.
