AFTER THE DEATHS OF PETAR AND IRINA, Old Petar collapsed into incapacity and fell away from the life of the town. Orphan Boris was taken in by Irina’s mother, Stoyana, who was the accountant in the local post office.

Stoyana considered her grandson’s preservation to be nothing short of a miracle. She loved him to distraction, and his infant antics were her cardinal joy.

When Boris was two years old she heard him singing a tune to himself. She recognised the melody, but could not recall where she had heard it. Boris continued to sing the same tune every evening, until Stoyana remembered it was a lullaby that Irina had written for her unborn son, and sung to him in the womb.
