Poveşti de dragoste la prima vedere by Gabriel Liiceanu RO
RomaniaDescription:
În prima poveste veți simți parfum de crini regali. În cea de-a doua un puternic miros de terebentină. A treia vă aduce în auz un nume care zgârie și unul care mângâie. A patra e cu adieri de aripi nevăzute. A cincea are miză și pariază pe nenoroc. Prima are inocență, umor, visare. A doua realism, râs, nerv. A treia, cu ironie, face poezie și economie (politică). A patra cade din fantastic în lumea noastră cea de toate zilele. Iar a cincea are trei capete de umbră.
Când Gabriel Liiceanu, Adriana Bittel, Radu Paraschivescu, Ana Blandiana și... continue
