Blurbs:
Erotic,
erratic, heretic, that is what Romanian poetry is like, writes MARGENTO (Chris
Tanasescu), himself a major voice who has labored tirelessly in promoting
poetry in translation both from and into Romanian. Make no doubt about it: the
work by new Romanian poets writing today is among the strongest, perhaps the
strongest poetic tradition in Eastern Europe. And, here is our chance to see
these wild and brilliant Romanians at play: there are songs of praise, of
lament, chants, invocations, surreal moments, realist sketches, lyrical asides,
hymns, and many other forms of poetic utterance brought together by their
erotic impulse. There are great voices here, totally unpredictable, totally
unafraid. Special gratitude goes to the editors and translators of this work
for making it available in English in versions so mesmerizing as these.
Ilya Kaminsky
“What
emerges here is a phantasmagoric, often magical erotica, a surrealism of the
body & the mind that directs it, as conveyed by a generation of poets
experiencing the possibility of a newly opened poetics of liberation. The
resultant work is a revelation of what poetry can do when unleashed, in its
most radical forms, to imagine & to reflect the fullest panoply of human
needs & desires. As it comes to us here in America, it is also a
great pleasure to read & to absorb, from cover to cover.”
