Adam şi Eva by Liviu Rebreanu RO
Description:
Nu sunt puţine mărturisirile lui Liviu Rebreanu despre propria-i operă, dar una dintre ele, reluată de câte ori a avut ocazia, e de natură să surprindă, în ciuda motivaţiei ce o avansează. Întrebat de reporteri despre preferinţele sale în legătură cu creaţiile-i româneşti, nu a ezitat niciodată să răspundă Adam şi Eva.

Adela by Garabet Ibrăileanu RO
Description:
E un tipic roman "fin de siecle". Este vorba despre dragostea doctorului cvadragenar, Emil Codrescu, pentru Adela, o femeie cu douazeci de ani mai tanara, maritata si divortata. Cu toate ca Adela manifesta pentru Emil simpatie, acesta delicat si fin, nu crede in posibilitatea unei uniuni. Emil Codrescu e din familia asa-numitilor, dupa o nuvela de Turgheniev, "oameni de prisos". Avem de-a face cu exemplare dotate cu mari calitati, dar care, apasate de conditii vitrege, practica o filozofie biologica deprimanta, fixand o limita arbitrara vietii, in neconcordanta cu vitalitat... continue
