Adina Popescu's short prose is a real treat, especially for those who want to let themselves be carried away by time and through time. Diverse characters, simple or complex, and above all, Bucharest reigns, as the main character of the book "În așteptare" (On Stand-By).
I really liked that, here and there, the
stories raise in us questions that we may not have considered at all or that we
have avoided thinking about. But most of all, I was charmed by the gentleness
that emerges from each story, a gentleness that can be extended to the reader,
in case of need. And who doesn't need gentleness?!
By all means, do read an excerpt below (only in Romanian).
