Efrem Karanfilov is one of those authors for whom writing is not a casual occupation. He is usually not satisfied with a banal, impersonal examination of works and problems, because writing an article for him is a way to express himself, to express his attitude towards things, to communicate his discoveries about people and literature. He feels a writing vocation within himself, he is possessed by the ambition to involve readers in his thoughts, to instill in them his convictions. Naturally, the literary works he writes about are not indifferent to him, his attitude towards them is very active. With their images and ideas, they unleash the flow of his own thoughts and moods and always evoke certain emotional reactions. These features apply to E. Karanfilov's work in general, but they are manifested to the highest degree in his essays. Because this is indeed a very suitable genre for an author with his inclinations and temperament. The essay gives him exactly that complete freedom that he needs - to follow his thoughts, unbound by preconditions.

Somehow suddenly his fiftieth birthday came. And it surprised others more than the poet, since youth always remains with people who nourish their energy with the vital juices of spiritual youth. And it is inexhaustible and does not recognize the physical limits of any age. It always awakens the inner human strength, increases the enthusiasm, flights of thought, inspiration and moral impulses. That is why Veselin Andreev remains the same noble fighter of the party, with a youthful soul, responsive to the masculine beauty in life and the new light of our ideal. The same party warrior and poet, with spiritualized and bright humanity, with moral purity and with an always cheerful, always sensitive and generous heart, always ready to give it to people.
