''Evgenija Garbolevsky makes an important contribution to the ongoing academic project of rethinking the communist period. In particular, she engages the important and complex issue of the state of the arts, in particular fi lm, under communism. [...] For historians of Bulgaria and communist eastern Europe, The Conformists helps contribute to a more layered understanding of the postwar period and state-society dynamics under communism. Garbolevsky details how the Bulgarian Communist Party built a well-funded and vibrant fi lm industry that took on a creative life of its own.'' - Mary Neuburger, 'Slavic Review', 72: 1 (2013), 155-156.
