    O nouă provocare editorială!

    Dragi prieteni, pentru primăvara-vara 2025 v-am pregătit o frumoasă poveste despre #dragoste și #tabuuri, #familie și #resentiment, #religie și #cruzime, #tehnologie și trăirea nemijlocită. O #iubire pe cât de imposibilă, pe atât de indispensabilă, desfășurată pe fundalul fabulos al Munților #Carpați și pe cel (ficționalizat) al Timișoarei mele natale. Îi dăm drumul în lume începând…

  • On love (2)

    “It was as if they had leapt over the arduous calvary of conjugal life and gone straight to the heart of love.

    On the solitude of writing

    “The person who writes books must always be enveloped by a separation from others. That is one kind ofsolitude. It is the solitude of the author, of writing. To begin with, one must ask oneself what the silence surrounding one is—with practically every step one takes in a house, at every moment of the day,…

    Quote of the day

    “I believe that it is difficult to kill an idea because ideas are invisible and contagious, and they move fast. I believe that you can set your own ideas against ideas you dislike. That you should be free to argue, explain, clarify, debate, offend, insult, rage, mock, sing, dramatize, and deny. (…) I believe that…

    Farewell to 2024 / Haiku

    to your unlikely silences, your unavowed explosions of joy I listen. I am a boundless receptacle for your corrosive past, your buried pain, your ecstasies; my future secretive, unknown.
