Crne Sume
Roman 'Crne sume' prvo je prozno delo Emila Petrova. Napisan u prvom licu, roman je iskren i neposredan, zasnovan na dogadjajima koji kroz autorovo dinamicno pripovedanje postaju bliski svakom citaocu. Glavni junak, nasavsi se u vihoru ratnih vremena, suocava se s teskim izborima u sudaru sa sistemom koji ga prisiljava na odluke koje ne zeli da donese. Kroz naizmenicno prikazivanje proslih i sadasnjih dogadjaja, autor ukazuje koliko su zapravo ovo dvoje isprepleteni, koliko proslost neizbezno oblikuje nasu sadasnjost, upozoravajuci nas posledicno na cinjenicu da je zivot nepredvidiv i da se u istom cesto ne desavaju stvari koje planiramo. 'Crne sume' su roman o licnim borbama, iskusenjima i snazi koju pojedinac mora pronaci kako bi se suocio s izazovima koje mu zivot postavlja, u svetu prepunom sukoba, korupcije i moralnih dilema.
