The Superstitious Chorbaji takes us back to the 17th-18th centuries - a time of oppression, of new Bulgarian self-consciousness and of a blazing strive for enlightenment and freedom. The main idea of the work is to transfer an aristocratic type of book in a time and society, in which aristocracy is not to be found. Bulgarian bookbinding history is like a puzzle with many missing parts, that are impossible to be discovered. This book is a small and at the same time, new part to this old puzzle.
