After a successful career of shrinking people's existential worries, Max switched to a happy self-sustaining life in the countryside of Bulgaria. Driven by desire to help fellows to find their piece of heaven like he did 6 years ago he runs a small real estate business Off Beat Bulgaria and operates mountain bike company Little Spring.
Between organising biking tours, making routes, sheltering strangers in his fantastically renovated guest house in Maluk Izvor, watering his vegetable garden or walking the dogs, Max is managing the biggest bookstore for second hand English books in Bulgaria.

Wide range of genres, well-selected books at reasonable price. You can find in a perfect condition Shakespeare's Sonnets at the price of 3 lv, One Hundred Years of Solitude or Umberto Eco's Baudolino at the price of 5 lv. There are finds in every category. I was gladly surprised to discover Human, All Too Human by Nietzshe or Nausea by Sartre in the philosophy sector (wrongly supposing only popular quasi-philosophical books will be there) or the pretty peculiar title as Pictorial History of Stalin in history category. The list is not endless but contains over 10 000 worth-reading pieces. The best thing is that you don't have to go to Yablanitza to buy a book personally (although it will be a pleasure to pass by where a kind and hospitable lady will offer you a cup of tea and some help). The bookstore is online, where the selection is even easier, the information about the book sufficient and its condition rated. The shipping price is unpainful, having in mind that the cost from Yablanitza is far cheaper than US or UK :)
Here they are: Elephant Bookstore.
