Truly amazing... I can't even stand the thought that someday I will have to finish the third volume from the "Orbitor" trilogy...

I`ve got a question to ask all of you. Could Cartarescu`s prose be considered fractal prose?

>>By LM



his books, his poetry, the guy's amazing!

>>By biancutza



the guy is good, no doubt about it, and he is getting even better. his "enciclopedia zmeilor"(ya, i'm romanian, who isn't around here) starts resembling the american postmodernism. it's a more cooverlike writting,though his dreamy obsessions are far from over.
p.s. orbitor3? it seems he has a perverse sense of suspense(must be this sequals frenzy)

i would like to answer to LM.. in my oppinion it's more about the ideal objects than fractals. u can read more about this concept, wich is, i admit it, related with the later, in some of i.p. coulianou's books.

>>By kolmogorov



it's all about the impression you get from reading the text. it's like a holographic image that the descriptions create when you read atentifly the text. the mood in which the book has been written (obssesion) passes on to the reader. the revelations contained in the two volumes are amazing.

>>By Elena



best romanian writer ever

>>By dabu2rock



I think Mircea Cartarescu is a very original creator, he has the power of reflecting our postmodern world in it's specific dissolution, whether we're speaking about the concrete reality or about the onirical one. But what impresses me most is that, as I read in some interviews with him, I find him a really nice person. Still, i don't believe that he has ever seen or visited this forum. Still, I can't prove it. You see, our postmodern world has it's limits. We can make it acceptable only by arts and literature. I would have liked to have the writer's e-mail...

Nici dac-ai fi fost cel mai maiestru pictor, dotat cu milioane de pensule si acuarele, n-ai fi putut sa faci ce-ai facut scriind. Se spune ca o imagine poate convoca o mie de cuvinte, dar tu ai rasturnat zicala asta: cateva cuvinte pot construi tablouri intregi, tablouri nesfarsite care nasc imagini si mai fara de sfarsit, care alcatuiesc o viata fantastica, a carei ramificatii se inmultesc exact cum se vede prin rotundul microscopului care arata proliferatia celulelor embrionice. Spun "viata fantastica"... toti o avem, de fapt. Numai de-am percepe-o toti ca tine... Daca asta ar fi posibil, multe din povestile seci si fara de culoare ar putea iesi la suprafata, dezgolite de greutatea cu care au fost ingropate dinadins. Vezi? Asta e posibilitatea pe care tu o ai sa atingi benefic omenirea.
