Banáš´s multiple award-winning novel The Jubilation Zone was published by the Bulgarian Publishing House PIC in Veliko Tarnovo.

“The book was introduced by the literature scientist Asen Milchev in the presence of the Slovak ambassador in Bulgaria Marián Jakubócy at the Slovak embassy on December 1st”, Jozef Banáš confirmed. He mentioned that the following day the book was ceremonially released in the historic building of the University library in the cradle of Bulgarian culture Veliko Tarnovo. The event was open to the broad public and was attended by the author himself, by the Slovak ambassador in Bulgaria Marián Jakubócy, the dean of the Faculty of modern languages, the professor Tsenka Ivanova, as well as the translator Fabiola Vicenová. Students of Slovak studies at the St. Cyril and St. Methodius University did not miss the opportunity to meet the bestselling Slovak author neither.
