the pen. This is how her first collection of poems "Window" was born, inspired by one
seminar of the famous poet Aksinia Mihailova. The most interesting thing is that to each
her work, as if synchronously, her brother Miroslav has already created a picture with
the same spiritual message. They dedicate it with great affection and humility to their dead
parents Maria and Ivan Radevi, also connected to Czechoslovakia.
