My Country

A queen who has become one of the people she once ruled shares a heartfelt portrait of a modest, newly‑formed nation. She moves from the anxiety of leadership to a quiet, evolving love for the land, inviting listeners to see the country through both the eyes of a ruler and the heart of a neighbor. The opening pages set a gentle, reflective tone that promises a personal journey rather than a grand political saga.

Through richly detailed vignettes, the author paints villages of shingled roofs that glitter in the sun, solitary mountain churches with carved columns, and shepherds whose solitary vigil captures the spirit of solitude. Illustrated sketches of peasant costumes, ancient crosses beside wells, and bustling Dobrudja markets add colour to an already vivid tapestry. This intimate travel memoir offers listeners a soothing walk across fields, forests, and forgotten monasteries, all while supporting a charitable cause.
