Writer Georgi Bardarov has won the European Union Prize for Literature for his novel "Absolvo te". The news was reported by the writer himself on Facebook.

"I accept this award as a recognition of the fact that I never give up, that I believe very strongly in the causes I write and speak about. I am sure that the way my characters forgive each other in my novels is the only way out of the Arab-Israeli conflict, which is taking innocent lives at this very moment. All of them and all of us need to say: ABSOLVO TE! I thank the jury for the great recognition. I thank the readers for the positive feedback and reviews!", Bardarov wrote.
