Bozhana Slavkova won the biggest international poetry contest Mili Dueli. She is the first Bulgarian author to have won the grand prix.
711 authors from 104 countries took part in the 9th edition of the competition, and 3 Bulgarians reached the 50 finalists. The young poetess won over the hearts of the jury and the public throughout the five rounds of the contest which lasted over one year. Bozhana Slavkova’s creative quests are in poetry, cinema, visual arts, theatre and performance. She is a flute-player by education. The poem she applied with is called Obituary Tree, and the poetic film created for it earned the biggest number of points from the contest’s organizer Nermin Delić from Bosnia and Herzegovina, who launched the contest in 2012 with the aim of promoting peace and tolerance in the world through poetry.
