Aer ?n iarb? este o poezie a ciclicit??ii. Anotimpuri ?i anotimpuri ale inimii. Toposuri ?i loca?uri ale refugiului ?n bucurii simple. Regenerarea prin elemente g?site ?n col?urile altor inimi. O poezie filmic?. O dinamic? cinematic? a cuvintelor ?i a surprizelor prinse de suflet ?i redate ?n pixelii colora?i ai fericirilor nea?teptate. Aer ?n iarb? este ?i ?n ?note de mare“ ?i ?n ?prim?vara la cheie“ un ciclu care mimeaz? numai aparent dicteul automat. Aer ?n iarb? este momentul c?nd treci pe strad? ?i scapi de lume, este spa?iul gol dintre cuvintele care ??i rostesc via?a ca s? dea propulsie maxim?.?Cu totul remarcabil? este, ?n poemele lui Mihai Vieru, capacitatea autorului de a descoperi, ?n spatele spectacolului cotidian, prezen?a miraculosului, a misterului, c?teodat? feeric, alt?dat? terifiant. Poetul e un spirit fantast, ?nzestrat cu ni?te antene extrem de sensibile la partea de umbr? a existen?ei, ?i un vizionar apt s? surprind? spectacularul banalului ?i s? transforme, a?a cum ??i dorea pe vremuri Rimbaud, o fabric? oarecare ?ntr-o moschee.“ (Octavian Soviany)
Povestiri v?n?tore?ti din vremea lui Neagoe Basarab
￥40.79
Irene Matoko, rom?nc? cu tat? congolez, scrie cu lacrimi ?n ochi ?i cu durere ?n suflet. Scurta sa relatare ne impresioneaz? profund ?i ne face s? ne ?ntreb?m cum este posibil ca, ?n secolul XXI, s? persiste ?n sufletele unor oameni ura de ras? ?i prejudec??ile ?n fa?a tr?s?turilor fizice native ale semenilor no?tri.Din p?cate, profesori ?i colegi, persoane la care ne-am a?tepta cel mai pu?in s? prigoneasc? o fiin?? uman? pentru simplul fapt c? are pielea de alt? culoare, ac?ioneaz? brutal ?i inuman ?mpotriva unor copii nevinova?i.Citi?i cartea aceasta ?i pl?nge?i. Citi?i cartea aceasta ?i privi?i-v? ?n oglind?. Citi?i aceast? carte ?i aminti?i-v? de cele dou? porunci ale lui Isus: iube?te-l cu toat? fiin?a pe Dumnezeu (acesta, care a creat rasele umane) ?i iube?te-l pe semenul t?u ca pe tine ?nsu?i.Chiar dac? semenul t?u are alt? culoare.

By the Ionian Sea: Notes of a Ramble in Southern Italy
￥40.79
Tomorrow I shall leave by the Messina boat, which calls at Paola. It is now more than a twelvemonth since I began to think of Paola, and an image of the place has grown in my mind. I picture a little marina; a yellowish little town just above; and behind, rising grandly, the long range of mountains which guard the shore of Calabria. Paola has no special interest that I know of, but it is the nearest point on the coast to Cosenza, which has interest in abundance; by landing here I make a modestly adventurous beginning of my ramble in the South. At Paola foreigners are rare; one may count upon new impressions, and the journey over the hills will be delightful.
