Macedonian Writers:

On all sides we are surrounded by screens, monitors, displays, therefore, not surprising that we have forgotten what a thrill when you hold a book in their hands and completely drown in it.

Reading is the mental gymnastics.

Somehow we missed that reading is more than entertainment, or obligation – in the case of schoolchildren and students.

One recent study confirmed that in addition to reading mental activation increases your ability to call, mind reading.

More specifically, the reading of literary works nurtures skills known as the “theory of mind or theory in edition, the ability to “read” the thoughts, and feelings of others.

Reading can you relax and calm down.

If you want to change something and to familiarize new authors we suggest you the best Macedonian authors.
