FLUX PERMANENT Scene ?i secven?e cur??ate de resorturile sugestiilor automate sunt eroii poeticii Ioanei Geac?r. ?pe scaunul de la cinema las? dinadins trandafirul/ lumina se va stinge/ ?i doar lic?ririle dinspre ecran sau dinspre u?a deschis?/ ?i vor m?ng?ia genunchii“ (?Cinema“) astfel de imagini ale singur?t??ii aflate ?n permanent? rela?ie cu tot ceea ce este ?n jur lumineaz? noul volum al Ioanei Geac?r. P?n? ?i titlul c?r?ii sale de la Casa de Pariuri Literare func?ioneaz? dup? aceea?i dinaminc? a izol?rii ?n mijlocul lucrurilor. Singur?tatea unui titlu ??Recviem pentru nuca verde? e un titlu de poem care m? b?ntuie de c?teva zile ?i uite unde a r?s?rit! Am pus si eu un nuc l?ng? bloc, c??iva ar?ari, plopi, tei, dar nu s-a prins dec?t un m?r care s-a dovedit a fi dud ?n cele din urm?. Toate vr?biile din cartier m? iubesc.“ scria Ioana Geac?r ?n urm? cu 5 ani pe un site literar. ?ntre timp, titlul acela pare s? fi preluat controlul asupra unui ?ntreg volum de poezii. Un volum ?n care nu este niciun poem care s? fie explicit recviem ?i nici de nuci nu vine vorba dec?t ?n interiorul cuv?ntului ?siNUCIdere“ sau c?nd ?sinuciga?ul alege din libr?rie c?teva c?r?i de pus sub picioare“. Verde ?n ce prive?te, ?ns?, felurile ?n care apare culoarea ?verde“ ?n volumul de fa?? al Ioanei Geac?r se pot scrie pagini consistente. De la fluturele care ??i schimb? culoarea, la ?zidul crescut ca un mu?chi“ cu op?iuni de ?tergere ro?ii ?i verzi, sau la acoperi?urile sm?l?uite ?n acela?i poem (?printre ruinurile T?rgovi?tei“), ?n amestecul cromatic al trupurilor dintre blocuri, sau ?mirosul de verde“ din ?emo?ii ?n ghips“, ochiul ?ncol?cit ?i rochia mamei, acela?i motiv leag? stabilizeaz? traseul poetic parcurs ?n aceast? carte care ?ncepe cu ?the end“ ?i se ?nchide cu ?ziua abia a-nceput“, ?naintea finalului ?ioana deseneaz? raze la sf?r?itul caietului de poezii“. Poveste vs. prezen?a uman? Multe poeme din acest volum alterneaz? personalul ?i impersonalul, articolul nehot?r?t ?i m?rci ale posesivit??ii la distan?? de c?teva versuri. Dac? ar fi s? aleg un mecanism care s? fie responsabil pentru demersul poetic al Ioanei Geac?r acesta ar fi tocmai amendarea jocului literar gratuit. Fie c? preia desf??ur?ri nostalgice ori tablouri ale purit??ii, nara?iunile sunt pulverizate aici pentru a face loc unui contur uman: ?mi-e team?/ c? dac? z?mbesc fa?a mi se va descompune“ (?humpty dumpty“). ?ntr-un volum ?n care singurele cuvinte scrise cu majuscule sunt T?rgovi?te, Breughel cel B?tr?n sau Hieronymus Bosch ?i unde nu exist? nici m?car o singur? virgul?, reperele poeziei sunt puse la ?ncercare, iar ?ncercarea suprem? este leg?tura dintre elemente aparent disparate, dintre m?rci ale fragilit??ii ?i ipostaze brutale, o c?utare expresiv? ?n flux permanent.

According to Wikipedia: "Mary Wollstonecraft (1759 – 1797) was an eighteenth-century British writer, philosopher, and feminist. During her brief career, she wrote novels, treatises, a travel narrative, a history of the French Revolution, a conduct book, and a children's book. Wollstonecraft is best known for A Vindication of the Rights of Woman (1792), in which she argues that women are not naturally inferior to men, but appear to be only because they lack education. She suggests that both men and women should be treated as rational beings and imagines a social order founded on reason."

Conrad's autobiography. According to Wikipedia: "Joseph Conrad (1857 – 1924) was a Polish-born English novelist. Many critics regard him as one of the greatest novelists in the English language—a fact that is remarkable, as he did not learn to speak English fluently until he was in his twenties (and always with a strong Polish accent). He became a naturalized British subject in 1886. Conrad is recognized as a master prose stylist. Some of his works have a strain of romanticism, but more importantly he is recognized as an important forerunner of modernist literature. His narrative style and anti-heroic characters have influenced many writers, including Ernest Hemingway, D. H. Lawrence, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Graham Greene, William S. Burroughs, Joseph Heller, V.S. Naipaul, Italo Calvino and J. M. Coetzee."

Fictionalized history. According to Wikipedia: "Samuel Langhorne Clemens (1835 – 1910), better known by the pen name Mark Twain, was an American author and humorist.

During his lifetime, Twain became a friend to presidents, artists, 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."

Collection of humorous 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."

An essay. According to Wikipedia: "Oscar Fingal O'Flahertie Wills Wilde (1854 - 1900) was an Irish playwright, novelist, poet, and author of short stories. Known for his barbed wit, he was one of the most successful playwrights of late Victorian London, and one of the greatest celebrities of his day. As the result of a famous trial, he suffered a dramatic downfall and was imprisoned for two years of hard labour after being convicted of the offence of 'gross indecency.'"

Biography. According to Wikipedia: "Edward Sylvester Ellis (April 11, 1840 – June 20, 1916) was an American author who was born in Ohio and died at Cliff Island, Maine. Ellis was a teacher, school administrator, and journalist, but his most notable work was that that he performed as author of hundreds of dime novels that he produced under his name and a number of noms de plume. Notable works by Ellis include The Huge Hunter, or the Steam Man of the Prairies and Seth Jones, or the Captives of the Frontier. Internationally, Edward S. Ellis is probably best known for his Deerhunter novels widely read by young boys up to the 1950s (together with works by James Fenimore Cooper and Karl May). In the mid-1880s, after a fiction-writing career of some thirty years, Ellis eventually turned his pen to more serious works of biography, history, and persuasive writing."

Essay about the legend/history behind Alexander Dumas' novel. According to Wikipedia: "Andrew Lang (March 31, 1844, Selkirk - July 20, 1912, Banchory, Kincardineshire) was a prolific Scots man of letters. He was a poet, novelist, and literary critic, and contributor to anthropology. He now is best known as the collector of folk and fairy tales

The classic of literary theory. According to Wikipedia: ""Johann Christoph Friedrich von Schiller (1759 – 1805) was a German poet, philosopher, historian, and dramatist. During the last few years of his life (1788–1805), Schiller struck up a productive, if complicated, friendship with already famous and influential Johann Wolfgang Goethe, with whom he greatly discussed issues concerning aesthetics, encouraging Goethe to finish works he left merely as sketches; this thereby gave way to a period now referred to as Weimar Classicism."

Az idén 80 éves Fenákel Judit élete Hitler diadala idején kezd?d?tt, magában foglalta a második világháborút, a munkatáborba deportálást, munkaszolgálatos édesapja meggyilkolását, rokonai elvesztését. Aztán átélte egy másik diktatúra felépülését, ami egy újabb hatalom természetével ismertette meg. K?zben megírt huszonhat k?nyvet, regényeket, novellákat, hangjátékokat, nem támogatták, legfeljebb megt?rték, így maradt gyalogíró mindvégig. Ahogy magáról írja akkor botrányos K-vonal cím? novellájában, amiért Szegedr?l szerencséjére Pestig kellett futnia.A csalódásukban benne van a rangom, a helyem a világban, ott leghátul a slapajok k?z?tt, a szaladjide, viddarrább osztályban. Hogy akárki, akármelyik vastag nyakú a kett?s tokája f?l?tt, kilencven kilója toronymagasából megfenyegessen az ujjával, no-no, elvtársn?, jólesz vigyázni, majd elkapjuk a frakkját!?gy élte, éli ma is íróiéletét, diktatúrából diktatúrába bukdácsolva parancsuralmi nagyurak és konjunktúra szolgáik sokaságában azzal a meggy?z?déssel, hogy így is lehet élni. Nem nagyon kényelmes, de kibírható.?Az elhallgatás legjobb regényeinek egyike, egy fiatal n? útjáról szól a reményt?l az elhallgatásig.Ez a k?nyv t?bb mint harminc éve jelent meg el?sz?r. ?jra olvasva Salamon király b?lcsessége jut róla eszembe: Az van, ami volt, az lesz, ami van.

Megfizethetetlen cím? k?nyvében Robert K. Wittman, az FBI M?kincsvédelmi Egységének alapítója el?sz?r rántja le a leplet figyelemre méltó karrierjér?l, A Thomas Crown-üggyel verseng?, ám a valós életben is megt?rtént nemzetk?zi thrillert kínálva. A The Wall Street Journal ?él? legendának” nevezte. A The London Times szerint ? ?a világ leghíresebb m?kincsnyomozója”. Wittman a megfizethetetlen m?kincsek és régiségek visszaszerzése m?g?tt rejl? t?rténetekkel kápráztatja el az olvasót. Beépített ügyn?kként általában fegyvertelenül szeg?d?tt m?kincstolvajok, csalók és feketepiaci keresked?k nyomába. Zsákmányainak változatossága egyedülálló. K?rbeutazta a világot, hogy megmentse Rockwell és Rembrandt, Pissarro, Monet és Picasso festményeit, gyakran titokban, a tengerentúli, külf?ldi kormányok szeszélyeire is tekintettel dolgozva. A Wittman által elfogott m?kincstolvajok és csalók k?z?tt van gazdag és szegény, eszes és ostoba, szervezett b?n?z? és kétségbeesett magányos farkas. Arról a csempészr?l, aki egy 6. századi, elrabolt kincset hozott neki, kiderült, hogy magas rangú diplomata. Az értékbecsl?, aki háborús h?s?k leszármazottjaitól lopta el azok családi ?r?kségét, egy ügyes, arisztokrata szélhámos volt. A múzeumi gondnok, aki George Washington hajfürtjeit tulajdonította el, csak egy kis pluszpénzt szeretett volna keresni. Az FBI számításai szerint Wittman t?bb száz millió dollár érték? m?kincset és régiséget mentett meg. Szerinte azonban a statisztika nem fontos, hiszen ki tudná eld?nteni, hogy mi ér t?bbet: egy Rembrandt-?narckép vagy egy a hadat megjárt amerikai zászló? Mindkett? megfizethetetlen.
