The book "Bulgarian Jews: Living History", published by Shalom in co-operation with Sofia Globe Media, narrates the story of the development of the Jewish community in Bulgaria from antiquity to the present day. Co-authored by Clive Leviev-Sawyer and Imanuel Marcus, it covers all the phases of that story, through the mediaeval period, the centuries of Ottoman rule, the decades after Bulgaria’s liberation, the events of 1943 - including the deportations to their deaths of more than 11 000 Jews from the "new lands" then under Bulgarian administration, also being commemorated this year - through the communist era and up to the changes towards democracy, while introducing readers to the leadership and members of the contemporary community.
