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

Classic collection of essays. According to Wikipedia: "Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874 - 1936) was an influential English writer of the early 20th century. His prolific and diverse output included journalism, philosophy, poetry, biography, Christian apologetics, fantasy and detective fiction. Chesterton has been called the "prince of paradox."[1] He wrote in an off-hand, whimsical prose studded with startling formulations. For example: "Thieves respect property. They merely wish the property to become their property that they may more perfectly respect it."[2] He is one of the few Christian thinkers who are equally admired and quoted by both liberal and conservative Christians, and indeed by many non-Christians. Chesterton's own theological and political views were far too nuanced to fit comfortably under the "liberal" or "conservative" banner."

A collection of essays, beginning with ruminations on ethics. The book starts: "The problem of education is twofold: first to know, and then to utter. Every one who lives any semblance of an inner life thinks more nobly and profoundly than he speaks; and the best of teachers can impart only broken images of the truth which they perceive. Speech which goes from one to another between two natures, and, what is worse, between two experiences, is doubly relative. The speaker buries his meaning; it is for the hearer to dig it up again; and all speech, written or spoken, is in a dead language until it finds a willing and prepared hearer. Such, moreover, is the complexity of life, that when we condescend upon details in our advice, we may be sure we condescend on error; and the best of education is to throw out some magnanimous hints. No man was ever so poor that he could express all he has in him by words, looks, or actions; his true knowledge is eternally incommunicable, for it is a knowledge of himself..."

Short collection of short essays, including "What Paul Bourget Thinks of Us" and "A Little Note to M. Paul Bourget". According to Wikipedia: "Samuel Langhorne Clemens (November 30, 1835 - April 21, 1910), better known by the pen name Mark Twain, was a humorist, satirist, lecturer and writer from the United States of America. Twain is most noted for his novels Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, which has since been called the Great American Novel, and The Adventures of Tom Sawyer. He is also known for his quotations. During his lifetime, Twain became a friend to presidents, artists, leading industrialists and European royalty. Twain enjoyed immense public popularity, and his keen wit and incisive satire earned him praise from both critics and peers. American author William Faulkner called Twain 'the father of American literature.'"

Short essay, first published in 1906. According to Wikipedia: "Washington is seen as a symbol of the United States and republicanism in practice. His devotion to civic virtue made him an exemplary figure among early American politicians. Washington died in 1799, and in his funeral oration, Henry Lee said that of all Americans, he was "first in war, first in peace, and first in the hearts of his countrymen." Washington has been consistently ranked by scholars as one of the greatest U.S. Presidents."

Long satiric essay. According to Wikipedia: "Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874 - 1936) was an influential English writer of the early 20th century.
