Paul Cernat: ?Optzecist? prin v?rst? ?i background, prozatoarea Doina Popescu are o inteligen?? vie, mobil?, robuste?e dezinvolt? a nara?iei ?i, fapt deloc la ?ndem?na oricui, o bun? priz? la umanitatea personajelor. Scrise alert, americ?ne?te, cu prospe?ime stilistic? ?i o predilec?ie special? pentru relatarea la prezent proiectat? ?n trecut, cele opt povestiri din Vipia amiezii surprind, ?n registre diferite, scene de via?? cotidian? cu miez atroce. Dincolo de cotidianul consumerist al scenelor de cuplu sau al feliilor de actualitate social?, textele developeaz?, prin filtre livre?ti sau existen?iale abil montate, imagini ale degrad?rii biologice, secrete inavuabile, derive f?r? ie?ire ale unor personaje ?n conflict cu lumea. Amestecul de vitalitate ?i morbid e con?inut, de altfel, chiar ?n titlu. Cel pu?in trei nara?iuni sunt antologice: ?Bimbu?ca? (despre m?rirea ?i dec?derea postdecembrist? a unei sp?l?torese care, ?n anii ’80, ?inea singur? ?n fr?u infernul unei gr?dini?e de copii cu dizabilit??i), ?Reka, un frison galactic de demult? (istoria cu substrat psihanalitic a unei rela?ii tulburi din studen?ie, dintre naratoare ?i o stranie, deviant? coleg? de c?min unguroaic?) ?i piesa-titlu (o devastatoare diagram? clinic? ?n care cancerul galopant, brusc descoperit, al unui sexagenar ?i destabilizeaz? via?a so?iei, proiect?nd-o din realitatea medical? ?ntr-o irealitate hipnotic?). U?oara tendin?? demonstrativ?, prezent? mai ales ?n dialogul dramatic mam?-fiic? din ?Un pian pentru concert? ?i ?n ekfrastic-melodramatica ?Tabloul?, e compensat? de vitalitatea povestirii, de pregnan?a personajelor ?i acuitatea observa?iei realiste. O carte de proz? matur?, la temperaturi interioare ?nalte”.

Personajul central, arhitectul Tudor Gur?u, s?tul de lipsa de perspectiv? a meseriei sale, ca proiectant de garduri de prefabricate, cote?e de porci ?i blocuri de garsoniere pentru nefamili?ti, realizeaz? c? locul s?u nu este ?ntr-un institut de proiect?ri f?r? perspective.

Constat c literatura mare n-au scris-o, dup 1989, cei care ctigaser puterea, n cultur, sub eticheta biruitoare de postmodernism, ci scriitorii singuratici, indiferent de generaie, indiferent dac unora li s-au pus stigmatul de expirai. Nicolae Breban, o spun de la bun nceput, a dat una dintre marile cri ale literaturii romne moderne i transmoderne, aproape o carte-testament. (...) Singura cale este una dintre cele mai lucide cri care s-au scris vreodat, capodopera-sintez a operei lui Nicolae Breban, susinut la o tensiune narativ excepional. (...) Singura cale este unul dintre marile romane transmoderne, n varianta cinic/kynic.“ – Theodor CodreanuCred c un mare scriitor cum este Nicolae Breban ar merita mult mai mult atenie de ct a avut parte n ultimii douzeci de ani, cnd s-a ncpnat s fac ceea ce a fcut dintotdeauna, indiferent de epoca pe care a traversat-o, indiferent de situaia social pe care a avut-o: s scrie. Ca orice mare creator, Breban a avut mereu puterea de a institui prin scrisul su, n pofida evidenelor, normalitatea.“ – Bogdan Creu)Nicolae Breban, nscut n 1934, continu, de la debutul su literar din 1957 i de la publicarea primului su romn, Francisca, n 1965, s fie o prezen de vrf n literatura romn contemporan. (...) Autorul attor volume a probat, de asemenea, un singular curaj civic, atunci cnd, la nici doi ani de la alegerea sa, exclusiv pentru merite culturale, ca membru supleant al Comitetului Central al Partidului Comunist Romn (august 1969), a dezavuat, la Paris, n mod public, regimul Ceauescu, pentru tezele culturale dogmatice din iulie 1971. Cu acel prilej, i-a dat i demisia din funcia de redactor-ef al principalei reviste literare autohtone, Romnia literar. El a refuzat, totui, exilul i s-a ntors n Romnia, suportnd cu demnitate urmrile gesturilor sale de nesupunere n numele unei contiine scriitoriceti libere...“ – Ion IanoiN. Breban este mai ales unul dintre marii romancieri ai literaturii romne dintotdeauna, cel mai important dintre romancierii notri actuali, sincron, prin formele i substana ficiunii, celei mai semnificative literaturi contemporane universale.“ – Marian Victor Buciu

The Tremendous Adventures of Major Gahagan
￥8.09
Classic short novel. According to Wikipedia: "Thackeray is most often compared to one other great novelist of Victorian literature, Charles Dickens. During the Victorian era, he was ranked second only to Dickens, but he is now much less read and is known almost exclusively for Vanity Fair. In that novel he was able to satirize whole swaths of humanity while retaining a light touch. It also features his most memorable character, the engagingly roguish Becky Sharp. As a result, unlike Thackeray's other novels, it remains popular with the general reading public; it is a standard fixture in university courses and has been repeatedly adapted for movies and television. In Thackeray's own day, some commentators, such as Anthony Trollope, ranked his History of Henry Esmond as his greatest work, perhaps because it expressed Victorian values of duty and earnestness, as did some of his other later novels. It is perhaps for this reason that they have not survived as well as Vanity Fair, which satirizes those values."

Kate Douglas Smith Wiggin was born in Philadelphia, and was of Welsh descent. She started the first free kindergarten in San Francisco in 1878 (the Silver Street Free Kindergarten). With her sister in the 1880s she also established a training school for kindergarten teachers. She was also a writer of children's books, the best known being The Birds' Christmas Carol (1887) and Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm (1903)."
St. John's Eve

Classic short story. According to Wikipedia: "Nikolai Vasilievich Gogol ( 1809 - 1852) was a Russian writer of Ukrainian ethnicity. Although his early works were heavily influenced by his Ukrainian upbringing and identity, he wrote in Russian and his works belong to the tradition of Russian literature; often called the "father of modern Russian realism," he was one of the first Russian authors to criticize his country's way of life. The novels Taras Bul'ba (1835; 1842 [revised edition]), Dead Souls (1842), the play The Inspector-General (1836, 1842), and the short story The Overcoat (1842) are among his masterpieces."

According to Wikipedia: "Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860 – 1904) was a Russian short-story writer, playwright and physician, considered to be one of the greatest short-story writers in world literature. His career as a dramatist produced four classics and his best short stories are held in high esteem by writers and critics Chekhov practised as a doctor throughout most of his literary career: "Medicine is my lawful wife," he once said, "and literature is my mistress." Chekhov renounced the theatre after the disastrous reception of The Seagull in 1896; but the play was revived to acclaim in 1898 by Constantin Stanislavski's Moscow Art Theatre, which subsequently also produced Uncle Vanya and premiered Chekhov’s last two plays, Three Sisters and The Cherry Orchard. These four works present a special challenge to the acting ensemble as well as to audiences, because in place of conventional action Chekhov offers a "theatre of mood" and a "submerged life in the text." Chekhov had at first written stories only for the money, but as his artistic ambition grew, he made formal innovations which have influenced the evolution of the modern short story. His originality consists in an early use of the stream-of-consciousness technique, later adopted by James Joyce and other modernists, combined with a disavowal of the moral finality of traditional story structure He made no apologies for the difficulties this posed to readers, insisting that the role of an artist was to ask questions, not to answer them."
In a Hollow of the Hills
￥8.09
Classic western novel. According to Wikipedia: "Bret Harte (August 25, 1836[2] – May 6, 1902) was an American author and poet, best remembered for his accounts of pioneering life in California. He was born in Albany, New York. ... He moved to California in 1853, later working there in a number of capacities, including miner, teacher, messenger, and journalist. He spent part of his life in the northern California coast town now known as Arcata, then just a mining camp on Humboldt Bay. His first literary efforts, including poetry and prose, appeared in The Californian, an early literary journal edited by Charles Henry Webb. In 1868 he became editor of The Overland Monthly, another new literary magazine, but this one more in tune with the pioneering spirit of excitement in California. His story, "The Luck of Roaring Camp," appeared in the magazine's second edition, propelling Harte to nationwide fame... Determined to pursue his literary career, in 1871 he and his family traveled back East, to New York and eventually to Boston, where he contracted with the publisher of The Atlantic Monthly for an annual salary of $10,000, "an unprecedented sum at the time." His popularity waned, however, and by the end of 1872 he was without a publishing contract and increasingly desperate. He spent the next few years struggling to publish new work (or republish old), delivering lectures about the gold rush, and even selling an advertising jingle to a soap company. In 1878 Harte was appointed to the position of United States Consul in the town of Krefeld, Germany and then to Glasgow in 1880. In 1885 he settled in London. During the thirty years he spent in Europe, he never abandoned writing, and maintained a prodigious output of stories that retained the freshness of his earlier work. He died in England in 1902 of throat cancer and is buried at Frimley."
