About the Book
The book Insomnias by Yavorov marks the beginning of Bulgarian Symbolism in poetry and is an emblem of the new movement as a period of Bulgarian literary process.
About the Fonts
Constantia is used for the front cover and Intarsia (outline) is used on the title page. The both fonts are a bichromatic set issued by Bauer & Co. and Berthold before 1899. Samples for Intarsia in German and Russian were registered by Berthold in 1899. The Russion font foundry Wilborg presents Intarsia as a Weronika font in its catalog (see p. 24-25).
