Lara Biyuts


Biography

Lara Biyuts (aka Lara Biuts, Larisa Biyuts), translator and writer from East Europe, author of gay themed novels and essays. My given name has several derivatives and diminutives that I use as a part of my pen-names, and my surname is another story, longer and more difficult: I used to simplify it, but in fact, it sounds and is initially spelled like the geographical name "Bijucie", and now, when on the Net, I seek my namesakes or learned persons, who know more of the geographical name and history of the region and want to share the info with me, the big fan of history, English language and linguistic in general, who is always in online search, placing reliance on Facebook, the busy place like no other. My novel La Lune Blanche is the first of the series. "The novel is the world where pleasures of life and pleasures of art are just norms."(Turner Maxwell Books)
My book A Handful of Blossoms is listed among the Best Gay Historical-2012

“Lara Biyuts’ writing is deep and multi layered.” (Maggie Mack Books, maggiemackbooks.com)

Like those great masters she takes us also into the shadow world of sexuality with its hidden psychology, possession and sensual revelations.” (Robert Sheppard, Author of the novel Spiritus Mundi, linkedin.com)
“The secret of Lara Biyuts is her tales. The secret of her tales is their charm. The secret of the charm is Lara Biyuts.” (Les Hudson, goodreads.com)

“Follow me, reader! Who told you that there is no true, faithful, eternal love in this world! May the liar's vile tongue be cut out! Follow me, my reader, and me alone, and I will show you such a love!” (Mikhail Bulgakov)
“Cowardice is the most terrible of vices.” (Mikhail Bulgakov)
