Un „drum” cu lumini și umbre, culoare, flori, mesteceni și vise
A "Way" with Lights and Shadows, with Color, Flowers, Birch trees and Dreams

Summary/Abstract: The volume of poetry Aș vrea să fiu iarăși mesteacăn (I would love to be a birch tree again) written by Radu Matei Todoran opens the way towards an interior world, a world in which the lyrical self feels safe but lonely. Since loneliness turns to anguish, the poet opens a “door” to his beloved, because love as well as dance, bring harmony, fulfilment and salvation. The atmosphere is warm, welcoming, opened to wishful thinking, everyday’s lights and shadows turn into color, flowers and birch trees. The risk appears when through that opening “rain” gets in, the only possible escape being the metamorphosis into birch trees. Aș vrea să fiu iarăși mesteacăn offers the reader, through epistles, a sincere poetry crossed by existential problems concerning nature, life death, love, true poetic images harmoniously combined with the graphics of two talented artists.
