Citesc Azi cnt jazz cu acea curiozitate uor nesigur cu care intri ntr-o locuin necunoscut. Din holul de la intrare m izbete ordinea. Fiecare cuvnt e la locul lui. Fiecare sentimenrt aezat pe raftul potrivit... Totul cu finee, cu rafinament, de un gust ireproabil. Culmea, mi place ordinea asta, mie, care am trecut o via ntreag prin meandrele suprarealismului, prin absurdul celor mai derutante concluzii, prin combinaii imposibile dintre un scaun i o cifr, dintre ziua de joi i un pepene verde. Gata! Debutul n poezie al Mihaelei Stanciu. Parcurg, aadar, cartea Azi cnt jazz. Un titlu incitant prin nostalgia acelui l’éternel retour, prin inciziile rafinate pe care bisturiul unui chirurg-poet le face pe propria lui agonie, pe tcere, pe tot ce vine nechemat...ca i cum ar fi ceva normal pe pmnt,/ iar tu s n-ai umbrel/ s-i plac s amesteci picturile/cu gndurile de peste noapte dintr-o conversaie neterminat. O fat singur cnt jazz fr s clameze nimic, fr s spun nimic, cauzele nu trebuie aflate. O fat cnt jazz, dar nu cnt o fat, tcerea e cea care cnt. Tcerea asta uneori e foarte neleapt. Dar nelepciunea e o mare ofens pentru un poet, vei spune. Uite c nu e aa. Nora Iuga

n unele momente, mintea omeneasc depete att limitele simurilor, ct i pe cele ale gndirii obinuite, intrnd pe trmul altor realiti. Pentru minte, visele n sine constituie realiti solide, precum starea normal de veghe. n vis, ca i n starea de veghe, percepem o multitudine de sentimente i emoii, precum i situaii de o realitate de necontestat, care ne influeneaz modul de comportament i fora vital. Numai c, atunci cnd ne trezim, ne dm seama c totul a fost doar o iluzie. Mintea, care n sine este un instrument, ajunge, prin puterea pe care i-o acordm n mod incontient, s ne subjuge i s ne manevreze dup propriile nchipuiri, fcnd acest lucru inclusiv n somnul cu vise. ns, n somnul adnc mintea nu mai este prezent, iar atunci cnd ne trezim nu mai avem nimic care s ne aminteasc de acea perioad. Totui, chiar i n somnul adnc exist ceva care ne nsoete, fcndu-ne s intuim c existm chiar i n acea perioad n care mintea este absent. Dup cei 10-12 ani ghidai de o persoan a crei identitate a rmas chiar i acum necunoscut, realiznd care este adevrata noastr natur, toate aceste metode i tehnici aplicate de mine i scrise aici n carte mi se par inutile. ns mi dau seama c la acel moment dac mi-ar fi spus doar att: tii c exiti“, Eti contient c exiti“ i Ai avut vreun moment n care nu ai existat“, nu cred c a fi neles nimic i simplitatea adevratei mele naturi (care este i a voastr) ar fi fost, ca de obicei, trecut cu vederea de minte.

The Heptameron, Volume 1
¥8.09
With 23 illustrations. According to Wikipedia: "The Heptameron is a collection of 72 short stories written in French by Marguerite of Navarre (1492-1549), published posthumously in 1558. It has the form of a frame narrative and was inspired by The Decameron of Giovanni Boccaccio. It was originally intended to contain one hundred stories covering ten days just as The Decameron does, but at Marguerite’s death it was only completed as far as the second story of the eighth day. Many of the stories deal with love, lust, infidelity and other romantic and sexual matters. One was based on the life of Marguerite de La Rocque, a French noblewoman abandoned, as punishment, with her lover on an island off Quebec... Marguerite de Navarre (French: Marguerite d'Angoulême) (April 11, 1492 – December 21, 1549), also known as Marguerite of Angouleme and Margaret of Navarre, was the queen consort of King Henry II of Navarre. As patron of humanists and reformers, and as an author in her own right, she was an outstanding figure of the French Renaissance. Samuel Putnam called her "The First Modern Woman"."
The After House
¥8.09
According to Wikipedia: "Mary Roberts Rinehart (August 12, 1876-September 22, 1958) was a prolific author often called the American Agatha Christie. She is considered the source of the phrase "The butler did it", although she did not actually use the phrase herself, and also considered to have invented the "Had-I-But-Known" school of mystery writing.... Rinehart wrote hundreds of short stories, poems, travelogues and special articles. Many of her books and plays, such as The Bat (1920) were adapted for movies, such as The Bat (1926), The Bat Whispers (1930), and The Bat (1959). While many of her books were best-sellers, critics were most appreciative of her murder mysteries. Rinehart, in The Circular Staircase (1908), is credited with inventing the "Had-I-But-Known" school of mystery writing. The Circular Staircase is a novel in which "a middle-aged spinster is persuaded by her niece and nephew to rent a country house for the summer. The house they choose belonged to a bank defaulter who had hidden stolen securities in the walls. The gentle, peace-loving trio is plunged into a series of crimes solved with the help of the aunt. This novel is credited with being the first in the "Had-I-But-Known" school."[3] The Had-I-But-Known mystery novel is one where the principal character (frequently female) does less than sensible things in connection with a crime which have the effect of prolonging the action of the novel. Ogden Nash parodied the school in his poem Don't Guess Let Me Tell You: "Sometimes the Had I But Known then what I know now I could have saved at least three lives by revealing to the Inspector the conversation I heard through that fortuitous hole in the floor." The phrase "The butler did it", which has become a cliché, came from Rinehart's novel The Door, in which the butler actually did do it, although that exact phrase does not actually appear in the work."

The Confessions of Nat Turner
¥8.09
According to Wikipedia: "Nathaniel "Nat" Turner (October 2, 1800 – November 11, 1831) was an American slave who led a slave rebellion in Virginia on August 21, 1831 that resulted in 56 deaths among their victims, the largest number of white fatalities to occur in one uprising in the antebellum southern United States. He gathered supporters in Southampton County, Virginia. Turner's killing of whites during the uprising makes his legacy controversial. For his actions, Turner was convicted, sentenced to death, and executed. In the aftermath, the state executed 56 blacks accused of being part of Turner's rebellion. Two hundred additional blacks were beaten and killed, as part of overreaction by white militias and mobs. Virginia and other southern states passed legislation reducing rights of free blacks and slaves. Across the South, state legislators passed new laws prohibiting education of slaves and free blacks, restricting rights of assembly and other civil rights for free blacks, and requiring white ministers to be present at black worship services."
The Abbot's Ghost or Maurice Treherne's Temptation, A Christmas Story
¥8.09
According to Wikipedia: books, like this one, that Louisa May Alcott wrote under the pseudonym A.M . Barnard are "passionate, fiery novels and stories"... These works ... were known in the Victorian Era as "potboilers" or "blood-and-thunder tales." Her character Jo in "Little Women" publishes several such stories but ultimately rejects them after being told that they are "dangerous for little minds." Their protagonists are willful and relentless in their pursuit of their own aims, which often include revenge on those who have humiliated or thwarted them. These works achieved immediate commercial success and remain highly readable today." According to Wikipedia: "Louisa May Alcott (1832 – 1888) was an American novelist. She is best known for the novel Little Women, published in 1868. This novel is loosely based on her childhood experiences with her three sisters."
American Notes

Account of a trip to America. Here's how he begins his description of San Francisco: " 'Serene, indifferent to fate, Thou sittest at the Western Gate; Thou seest the white seas fold their tents, Oh, warder of two continents; Thou drawest all things, small and great, To thee, beside the Western Gate.' This is what Bret Harte has written of the great city of San Francisco, and for the past fortnight I have been wondering what made him do it. There is neither serenity nor indifference to be found in these parts; and evil would it be for the continents whose wardship were intrusted to so reckless a guardian."

Aesop for Children
¥8.09
This edition, with 114 color illustrations, was first published in 1919. According to Wikipedia: "Aesop (ca. 620-564 BC), known for the genre of fables ascribed to him, was by tradition born a slave and was a contemporary of Croesus and Solon in the mid-sixth century BC in ancient Greece... The body of work identified as Aesop's Fables was transmitted by a series of later authors writing in both Greek and Latin. Demetrius of Phalerum (ca. 350-ca. 280 BC) made a collection in ten books, probably in prose (Lopson Aisopeion sunagogai) for the use of orators, which has been lost. Next appeared an edition in elegiac verse, cited by the Suda, but the author's name is unknown. Phaedrus, a freedman of Augustus, rendered the fables into Latin. Babrius turned the fables into Greek choliambics in the earlier part of the 3rd century A.D. Another 3rd century author, Titianus, rendered the fables in prose, now lost. Avianus (of uncertain date, perhaps the 4th century) translated 42 of the fables into Latin elegiacs. The 4th century grammarian Dositheus Magister also made a collection of Aesop's Fables, now lost. Aesop's Fables continued to be revised and translated through the ensuing centuries, with the addition of material from other cultures, so that the fables known today in some cases bear little relation to the original fables of Aesop. With a surge in scholarly interest in Aesop and Aesopic fable beginning toward the end of the 20th century, some attempt has been made to determine the nature and content of the very earliest fables which may be most closely linked to the historic Aesop... Milo Winter (August 7, 1888 – August 15, 1956) was a well known book illustrator, who produced works for editions of Aesop's Fables, Arabian Nights, Alice in Wonderland, Gulliver's Travels, Tanglewood Tales (1913) and others. He was born in Princeton, Illinois and trained at Chicago’s School of the Art Institute. He lived in Chicago until the early 1950s, when he moved to New York City. From 1947 to 1949, he was the art editor of Childcraft books and from 1949, was the art editor in the film strip division of Silver Burdett Company."
