Un roman textualist, un roman-experiment propus de o scriitoare care are un stil aparte, abrupt, dens, av?nd for?a de a recurge la mari desf??ur?ri epice, situate ?n siajul textuali?tilor europeni. ?Hidrapulper este o metafor? terifiant?, o bolgie ?n care se f?r?m?, se topesc deopotriv? destine, cuvinte, c?r?i, momente istorice, natura ?ns??i... toate trec?nd ?ntr-o past? inform?. Un roman "negru", unic, al adev?ratei atmosfere de “fabric?““. (Christian Cr?ciun)Cartea este destinat? unui public larg, iubitorilor de romane ce fac parte din onorabila tradi?ie a romanelor de citit ?n tren.

Pata-Tata. ?ah nu este o carte de critic? literar?, nu este un experiment critific?ional hibrid, nu este nici o fic?iune pur?, ci este, ?n cel mai autentic sens pe care ?l permite literatura ast?zi, confesiunea unei sensibilit??i ?b?ntuite“. Despre paginile care ??i ?ntind umbrele prelungi asupra propriei vie?i ?i despre absen?ele care se strecoar? imperceptibil din autobiografic ?n c?r?ile pe care le cite?te, Diana Adamek scrie ?ntr-o tonalitate silen?ioas?, hipnotic?, cu talentul incontestabil al unui romancier. Evit?nd conven?iile obosite ale textualismului, sau problematiz?rile conceptuale ale teoriei literare, Pata-Tata. ?ah este romanul unei credin?e poetice care configureaz? deopotriv? spa?iul clipei vii ?i cel al memoriei livre?ti ?n liniile de for?? ale unei vibra?ii pasionale. ?ntre c?r?ile rom?ne?ti ale primului deceniu, acest eseu confesiv al Dianei Adamek r?m?ne cea mai patima?? ?i mai provocatoare m?rturie de credin?? a unui cititor avizat, ?i, dup? cum avea s? se dovedeasc? c??iva ani mai t?rziu, a unui excep?ional prozator.Ovidiu Mircean

C?t?lin-Mihai ?tefan a reu?it s? scrie o carte tulbur?toare despre avatarurile unei identit??i ?n curs de revelare. Poemele sale, imagini fulgurante ale memoriei, sunt ofrande aduse unui timp deja tr?it, mici lumi disp?rute care ??i cer dumicatul de p?ine ?i linguri?a de vin. Ce am fi f?r? amintiri, ce ar fi amintirile f?r? noi cei de acum... Puzzle-ul acestor ?istorii“ personale prinde contur abia dup? ce lucrurile nespuse ?ncep s? se acumuleze ?i s? fie la fel de prezente ca ?i acelea rostite cu ap?sare. Dup? un debut onorabil Muza avatarului (2005), C?t?lin-Mihai ?tefan revine ?n poezie cu un volum c?t se poate de conving?tor, al?tur?ndu-se astfel, celor mai buni poe?i ai celui de-al doilea val dou?miist. (?erban Axinte)Apaosuri este volumul de poeme care te contamineaz? cu mult? candoare, cu un limbaj care te oblig? s? te copil?re?ti p?n? acolo, ?nc?t s? con?tientizezi c? de fapt fiecare etap? a vie?ii nu are s? ?nsemne dec?t ?nc? un pas de ?otron. Poetul divulg?, ?ntr-o manier? inedit?, aromele ?i energiile copil?riei postsocialiste. Altfel spus, Apaosuri este volumul unor holograme lirice pe care poetul, inspirat, ni le aduce ?n acest postmodernism natural-robotizat. Cred c? prin acest volum autorul ??i c??tig?, la propriu, locul binemeritat ?n peisajul poeziei 2000+. (Paul Gorban)

Aura Christi posed numeroase virtui. Fora compoziiei pe multe planuri. Impactul personal ntre lecturi bogate i o viguroas inventivitate. Mijloace suple de caracterizare.

“Prima edi?ie din Jurnalul lui Lev Tolstoi a ap?rut la Editura Univers, ?n dou? volume (?n anii 1975 ?i 1976 – vol. I: 1847-1895, vol. II: 1896-1910), incluse ?n colec?ia ?Coresponden??, memorii, jurnale“. Traducerea a realizat-o Janina Iano?i; prefa??, tabelul cronologic, notele ?i comentariile – Ion Iano?i. Respectiva edi?ie a reprezentat o selec?ie din textul integral al edi?iei academice ruse?ti Polnoe sobranie socinenii (iubileinoe izdanie), Opere complete (edi?ie jubiliar?). Din volumele 1-90 (Moscova-Leningrad, 1928-1958), am folosit cele treisprezece volume de jurnal, 46-58 (ap?rute ?ntre 1934 ?i 1958). Orientativ, am consultat ?i o edi?ie de Opere ?n dou?zeci de volume (din 1965) – volumele 19 ?i 20. ?n alegerea textelor am urm?rit devenirea ?i dominantele cople?itoarei personalit??i a marelui scriitor, ?in?nd seama ?i de interesele publicului cititor rom?nesc. Edi?ia a II-a i s-a datorat Editurii Elit (tip?rit?, f?r? specificarea datei, ?n 2000). Ea a urmat, cu unele renun??ri ?i c?teva complet?ri, varianta ini?ial?, dar ?i pe baza confrunt?rii textelor cu cele re?inute ?ntr-o selec?ie ruseasc? ulterioar?, ?n dou?zeci ?i dou? de volume, Sobranie socinenii v dvadtati dvux tomah (Moscova, 1985), Opere ?n dou?zeci ?i dou? de volume, volumele 21 ?i 22. Am constatat cu acel prilej coinciden?a ?ntre majoritatea textelor re?inute ini?ial de noi ?i de alc?tuitorul respectivei edi?ii ruse?ti, dar ?i unele deosebiri: sunt acolo prezente fie pasaje ?teoretice“ mai ample, fie altele cu adres? recognoscibil? doar de c?tre cititorii autohtoni familiariza?i cu mediul specific vremii – ?n schimb, sunt omise at?t detalii biografice considerate a fi prea intime (mai ales erotice, ?n genere legate de starea corporal?, de s?n?tate ori boal?), c?t ?i multe accente sociale considerate de editorul rus de atunci ca indezirabile prin ascutisul lor critic (cu deosebire, cele la adresa revolu?iei, marxismului, socialismului). ?n ceea ce ne prive?te, le-am p?strat ?i pe unele, ?i pe celelalte, ?n schimb nu am dorit – cu rare excep?ii – s? ?nc?rcam selec?ia noastr? cu expozeuri lungite, care oricum variaza idei cunoscute. Amintita edi?ie rus? ne-a servit, mai degrab?, pentru suplimentarea acribiei de care am ?ncercat s? d?m dovada ?nc? din anii ?aptezeci ai secolului trecut. Am urmat aceea?i cale ?i la revederea ?i ?mbun?ta?irea textului pentru prezenta edi?ie, a III-a, finalizat?, dup? al?i cinci ani, prin bun?voin?a Editurii Ideea European?.“ (Ion Iano?i)

Cartea pe care joac? de la ?nceput D. ?epeneag este aceea a (neo)avangardei. A fost firesc ?i miraculos s? o ?nceap? la Bucure?ti, ?ntr-un moment de straniu, nea?teptat ?i viclean experiment politic ?liberal“-na?ional-comunist, c?nd literatura rom?n? ren??tea, ?n felurite chipuri, din cenu?? realist-socialist?. La Paris, ?n ianuarie 1971, descoperea o lume artistic? diferit?, dar cu dificult??i diferite ?i deloc ?ncur?j?toare. Exemplele lui Tzara, Isou, Ionesco, inimitabile, r?m?n, la o analiz? lucida a ?anselor, doar consolatoare. Nu-i u?or s? convingi o lume pentru care ?nnoirile at?t de frecvente au fost confiscate de tradi?ie. Parisul, Fran?a, limba lui Jarry s-au dezobi?nuit temeinic s? mai a?tepte scandaluri estetice de import. Produc?ia artistic? intern? e suficient?, chiar excedentar?. Sunt timpuri f?r? glorie, grele, pentru avangardi?tii parizieni. (Marian Victor Buciu)

Existen?a diafana, care continu? volumele de autor Cercul de gra?ie (2003) ?i O carte pe s?pt?m?n? (2007), reprezint? o foarte echilibrat? ?i competent? radiografiere a simptomatologiei editoriale rom?ne?ti din anii 2000-2010, ?tefan Borbely unind ?ntre coper?ile aceluia?i volum at?t texte dedicate unor nume consacrate ale literaturii rom?ne (Marin Sorescu, Mircea Zaciu, Nicolae Breban, Marin Mincu, Livius Cioc?rlie, Adrian Marino, Horia-Roman Patapievici, Mircea C?rt?rescu, Paul Cornea, Dan C. Mih?ilescu), c?t ?i analize ale unor autori tineri, care s-au f?cut cunoscu?i ?n ultimii ani (Adrian Dohotaru, C?t?lin ?i Roxana Ghi??, Adriana Teodorescu, Florina Codreanu, Ioana Macrea-Toma, Constantina Raveca Buleu), cu c?r?i preponderent din domeniul istoriei ?i sintaxei mentalit??ilor ?i cel al studiilor culturale. Fire analitic?, scrut?toare, dotat? cu o bun? deschidere teoretic? ?i cu o impecabil? precizie a conceptelor, ?tefan Borbely este interesat cu prec?dere de idei ?i de simptomatologii culturale, textele dedicate jurnalului lui Adrian Marino (Via?a unui om singur), experimentalismului lui Marin Mincu sau modernit??ii ?n lectura lui Paul Cornea (toate prezente ?n carte) fiind dintre cele mai bune care s-au scris ?n domeniu. Pornind de la cazuri particulare ?i de la volume care au, f?r? excep?ie, o deschidere ideatic? vast?, incitant?, cartea profesorului Borbely reprezint? un foarte suplu efort de sintez? critic?, realizat? cu har, competen?a ?i profesionalism.

Celebrul, iubitul ?i controversatul profesor de filozofie Ion Petrovici a avut o via?? fracturat?. ?ntr-o vreme, a urcat p?n? pe Everestul performan?ei ?i al recunoa?terii publice, de unde, atunci c?nd istoria s-a virusat de o ideologie apocaliptic?, s-a pr?bu?it direct ?n groapa Marianelor – b?ntuit? de tot felul de silnicii ?i nes?buin?e. Mult? vreme s-a am?git cu ?n?elesul m?ng?ietor al filosofiei (De consolation philosophie), a?a cum i-l h?r?zise cei vechi, dar s-a ?i ?nfiorat de mizeriile ei, atunci c?nd a v?zut-o dec?zut? ?n condi?ia de surogat ideologic. Oare trebuia, dup? ce-a privit lumea prin sp?rtura pe?terii lui Platon, s-o p?ndeasc? ?i din spatele gratiilor ?i-a z?voarelor trase? Vremurile noi, r?scolnice, l-au g?sit total nepreg?tit. Glasul s?u, obi?nuit s? peroreze ?n aule universitare, ?n Camer?, ?n Academie, ?n cadrul unor fastuase reuniuni interna?ionale a fost, pentru multe decenii, obligat la t?cere. […] Paginile memorialistice reproduse de noi ?n aceast? carte reprezint? doar o diviziune (cap. VIII) dintr-o lucrare mai elaborat? ?i necunoscut?. Nu ?tim unde se g?sesc restul paginilor, dar n?d?jduim c? de?in?torul lor s? g?seasc? o formula de punere ?n circula?ie public? a ?ntregului material pentru a putea reconstitui o perioad? important? din via?a sa ?i, implicit, din istoria acestei ??ri.

"There are few books like Saris and a Single Malt in which the loss of a mother, a homeland, and the self come together in a sustained elegy." --Justen Ahren, Director Noepe Center, Author of A Strange Catechism "In life, as in poetry, one must come from the heart.

Chinese Blackbird
￥56.82
Critical Acclaim for Sherry Quan Lee's Chinese Blackbird "Quan Lee eloquently expresses how painful and confusing it can be to embrace the many complex identities that one body can contain. With evocative imagery and words that cut straight to the heart, Quan Lee details her lifelong struggles with both the vagaries and concreteness of race, class, gender and sexual identity. Her guilt and shame are palpable. But so too are her emotional and intellectual triumphs. Like a favorite sad song when we have been dumped by the love of our lives, this volume will be oddly comforting to anyone who has ever been overcome by that sorrow which seems insurmountable." --Eden Torres, Assistant Professor Women's Studies, Chicano Studies, University of Minnesota "It's been a long time since I've been treated to a voice so full of honesty about one's struggle to come to terms with her identity. Through elegant poetry, full of exquisite imagery and detail, Quan Lee takes the reader on her personal, transformative journey in which she explores how race, class, gender and sexual identity inform who she is. Along the way, she encounters rocks and boulders that would have stopped many of us. Instead, she turns them over and examines the creatures hiding in the darkness underneath, leaving no stone on her path unturned. Quan Lee is a courageous woman. She is one of my sheroes." --Carolyn Holbrook, Adjunct Assistant Professor, Dept. of English, Founder and past Artistic/Executive Director of SASE: The Write Place "In Chinese Blackbird, Sherry Quan Lee renders stories of her complex cultural heritage with the lyrical touch of a poet coming into self-possession. Through the generative power of language, Lee creates an inspirational and a multifarious self. This self blows breath unto the page and into the reader, who may have felt quiescent or invisible, often feeling forced to choose among various enriching worlds, until she experiences the truth that only good literature can unveil about the joys and struggles of defining oneself on one's terms." --Pamela R. Fletcher, Associate Professor of English Co-Director of Critical Studies in Race and Ethnicity, College of St. Catherine Learn more about the author at www.SherryQuanLee.com Book #2 in the Reflections of History Series from Modern History Press www.ModernHistoryPress.com Modern History Press is an imprint of Loving Healing Press

The Witch and Other Stories
￥40.79
It was approaching nightfall. The sexton, Savely Gykin, was lying in his huge bed in the hut adjoining the church. He was not asleep, though it was his habit to go to sleep at the same time as the hens. His coarse red hair peeped from under one end of the greasy patchwork quilt, made up of coloured rags, while his big unwashed feet stuck out from the other. He was listening. His hut adjoined the wall that encircled the church and the solitary window in it looked out upon the open country. And out there a regular battle was going on. It was hard to say who was being wiped off the face of the earth, and for the sake of whose destruction nature was being churned up into such a ferment; but, judging from the unceasing malignant roar, someone was getting it very hot.
How to Write a Suicide Note:Serial Essays that Saved a Woman's Life
￥56.82
How to Write a Suicide Note examines the life of a Chinese/Black woman who grew up passing for white, who grew up poor, who loves women but has always married white men. Writing has saved her life. It has allowed her to name the historical trauma--the racist, sexist, classist experiences that have kept her from being fully alive, that have screamed at her loudly and consistently that she was no good, and would never be any good-and that no one could love her. Writing has given her the creative power to name the experiences that dictated who she was, even before she was born, and write notes to them, suicide notes. Sherry Quan Lee believes writing saves lives; writing has saved her life.Acclaim for How to Write a Suicide Note "How to Write a Suicide Note is a haunting portrait of the daughter of an African mother and a Chinese father. Sherry dares to be who she isn't supposed to be, feel what she isn't supposed to feel, and destroys racial and gender myths as she integrates her bi-racial identity into all that she is. Through her raw honesty and vulnerability, Sherry captures a range of emotions most people are afraid to confront, or even share. Her work is a gift to the mental health community." --Beth Kyong Lo, M.A., Clinical Psychologist "Sherry Quan Lee offers us, in How to Write a Suicide Note, a deep breathing meditation on how love is under continuous revision. And like all the best Blues singers, Quan Lee voices the lowdown, dirty paces that living puts us through, but without regret or surrender." Wesley Brown, author of Darktown Strutters and Tragic Magic "I love the female aspects, the sex, and the strong voice Sherry Quan Lee uses to share her private life in How To Write A Suicide Note. I love the wit, the tongue-in-cheek, the trippiness of it all. I love the metaphors, especially the lover and suicide ones. I love the free-associations, the 'raving, ravenous, relentless' back and forth. Quan Lee breaks the rules and finds her genius. How to Write a Suicide Note is a passionate, risk-taking, outrageous, life-affirming book and love letter."
