A comic classic of world literature, Aleko Konstantinovs 1895 novel Bai Ganyo follows the misadventures of roseoil salesman Ganyo Balkanski (Bai is a Bulgarian title of intimate respect) as he travels in Europe. Unkempt but endearing, Bai Ganyo blusters his way through refined society in Vienna, Dresden, and St. Petersburg with an eye peeled for pickpockets and a free lunch. Konstantinovs satire turns darker when Bai Ganyo returns homebullying, bribing, and rigging elections in Bulgaria, a new country that had recently emerged piecemeal from the Ottoman Empire with the help of Czarist Russia.Bai Ganyo has been translated into most European languages, but now Victor Friedman and his fellow translators have finally brought this Balkan masterpiece to Englishspeaking readers, accompanied by a helpful introduction, glossary, and notes.Winner, Bulgarian Studies Association Book PrizeFinalist, Foreword Magazines Multicultural Fiction Book of the YearWinner, John D.
