Iskar: 44 (ne)navadnih predmetov od blizu in daleč

Kot namiguje podnaslov, knjiga Iskar vsebuje zgodbe o 44 predmetih od blizu in daleč. Radovedna in raznolika zbirka, urejena po tematikah, vključuje presenetljive najdbe z vsega sveta: škornje iz Butana, tlakovce z Gaudijevim vzorcem iz Barcelone, kozarce za vino iz Baskije, broško v obliki srca iz Sarajeva, espadrile iz Pirenejev, skarabeje iz starega Egipta, škatlo smeti iz New Yorka, kos oranžne tkanine s plavajočih pomolov na jezeru Iseo, slovenskega rjovečega zmaja, zemljevid vzhodnega Berlina in še mnogo več.

Ko Ekaterina Petrova pripoveduje zgodbe o teh predmetih, pravzaprav pripoveduje tudi o krajih, od koder prihajajo – Kustendorf in Katmandu, Ljubljana in Louisiana, Belvedere in Bilbao, Selçuk in Centralni park –, ter jih umešča v širši jezikovni, kulturni, zgodovinski, antropološki ali geografski kontekst. Umetelna mešanica potopisov, esejev in zgodb je skrbno raziskana in podkrepljena z zanimivimi dejstvi, vendar prežeta s subjektivnim pogledom avtorice in njeno osebno biografijo popotnice, prevajalke in iskarke.

Oblikovanje in podoba knjige, ki jo je ustvarila Ljuba Haleva, ena najvidnejših sodobnih bolgarskih ilustratork, dobro in s smislom za humor pričara duh zgodb. Tako tudi sama knjiga postane čudovit predmet, ki prinaša užitek in veselje – za branje in ponovno branje, za posedovanje in obdarovanje.
