Short description

Piraeus is a three-seeded grass, and some call it Koshtreva. But you can dig it up, root it, pluck it, it still doesn't die. It only needs to touch the ground a little and it will take hold again, it will come to life, it will sprout. Nothing can destroy that grass.

The novel Piraeus is a cult book in Macedonian literature. Since its first publication in 1980, critics have called it a landmark novel in Macedonian fiction. It quickly became one of the most widely read books, almost accepted as a kind of Macedonian bible in which, in its own way, everyone recognizes the collective Golgotha ​​of our historical memory. With its simple narrative reception and the wide radius of rich linguistic radiation, with its multi-layered content of human destinies and events, Piraeus almost immediately and equally became close to everyone. The unquenchable interest of the readership in this novel is a testament to its unlimited duration.
