Böcker av Yana Spasova

A DROLL ADULT FAIRY TALE ABOUT SELF-DISCOVERY AND MORE Waking Up to Being is a fairy tale about self-discovery and getting to the core of our being. It is a dream-like story that combines magical realism with folklore, mysticism, mythology, Eastern spirituality, humor, and childish naivete.A life-changing event has brought Yana back to the archaic primordial essence of her being. This mental retreat has dulled Yana's former understanding of the world, and now she has to relearn everything from the very beginning. The world appears to her as simultaneously familiar (Yana's feminine grown-up nature) yet also fresh, bizarre, ironic, and often completely illogical (Yana's new child-like, back-to-the-core nature). The path of her rediscovery follows an evolution-like logic. It starts at the plant kingdom, goes through the animal kingdom, then to the world of the "half-humans," the world of the humans, and ends in the world of the gods. While passing through these worlds and adapting to their oddness, Yana experiences a range of peculiar occurrences such as entering and exiting time, realizing the inner and outer poisons, identifying the Purpose and finding the Path. On this journey of rediscovering the world Yana will also meet the person who will ultimately lead her to the deepest part of herself and help her grasp the most sacred truth about her existence.
