Живот във възстановка
Life in Reenactment

Summary/Abstract: The text starts from the experience of writing the novel Time Shelter and explores why and how the late socialism reactivated the late Revival period. And how today the double memory, or the memory of the second degree – for the Revival period, but through the memory of the Soc – is again propelling the light industry of memory and filling the public space with ersatz-memory. One of the central themes of this text, and of the novel, is this new attraction to the past, not as an enlightened narrative, but as an embodied image, as a life in reenactment.
