„Noi astfel vă iubim în Franța! Acum faceți ce vreți cu iubirea noastră!” sau despre vizitele unor scriitori la Chișinău
„This is how we love you in France! Now do what you want with our love!” or about the visits of some writers to Chișinău

Summary/Abstract: The theme of the dialogue is the visits of foreign writers to Chișinău and the literary collaborations with them during the last two decades of the Soviet regime and in the first two after the emergence of the new state Republic of Moldova. The facts are reconstructed by the poet, prose writer, playwright, folklorist Iulian Filip, who was actively involved in them, starting in the 70s. Thus, the meetings in Chișinău with the Armenian poet Ghevorg Emin, the Japanese translator Sumiya Haruia, the Romanian writers Ioan Alexandru, Mircea Tomuş, the Italian journalist, editor and translator Amedeo Carrocci etc. are reconstructed. As a result of these meetings, collaborations were established and especially writers from Chișinău literature were translated. Living memory corrects the official records, irremediably converted to the themes required by Soviet culture, which the foreign writers who arrived in Chișinău had to honor. At the same time, Iulia Filip reconstructs some sequences from the literary life of the first years of the independence of the republic between the Prut and Dniester.
