Nichita Stanescu is the most important post-World War II poet of Romania. With him, through him, the logos of the Romanian language takes revenge on its poets.

@EmKateRam @CATranslation We love it too. Especially when he's peeved about the "mean joy of that bitch" (a star). https://t.co/QpEp2YW2Vx

@katalinasilver @Harpers "Onetti may have been a pessimist, but the very beauty and startling unpredictability of his prose attest to his devotion to something — possibly art alone."

"Vesaas's story ... rumbles with an ache for connection to people, animals and visions, and ultimately the earth, which waits to fulfill our mortal destinies." @DavidVarno's sharp review of Tarjei Vesaas's The Hills Reply. Get your own copy below: https://t.co/IIChGXdD6i

A beautifully eerie scene, like something out of a Malaparte novel, describes the peaceful faces of 5 dead soldiers on the forest floor in a night rain. When the sun begins to rise, a gleam appears on them,"The afterglow of crimes that rises up to heaven." https://t.co/bndI1s4hp6

@justine_jordan "Every stranger is indeed strange in this eerie, devastating little book; but the same is true of family. We are all sealed worlds, Ørstavik seems to suggest; it’s dark outside, and it’s dark inside too." — @guardian https://t.co/qATQoVx9JO
