Insomnia In Flowers
Stella Vinitchi Radulescu

|
...what I like in the undervoice and the subterranean narrative
threading it all together, the world speaking its mind only as a
conduit for stark awareness of the damaged and beautiful
self...(selves). All the big themes here, in an intimate whisper, in shocking
disbelief, gushing with desire - amazing lyric poetry.
David Dodd Lee, poet and editor, Half Moon Bay Editing
These unexpected and often category-breaking lines give us Stella Radulescu's
acute sense of chaotic, lonely and metaphysically absurd where before death without
resurrection our hope and reality is the unbearable beauty of a dream-turtle
with blue eyes or a snowflake on the tip of the tongue or where before dawn on
the Black Sea we can leave our bodies long before time.
Prof. Paul Friedrich, Anthropology & Linguistics,
University of Chicago
Poetry apparently emanates from Stella Vinitchi Radulescu as any essential element
from source. Her work is that lucid and pure. Such understated elegance cannot
be taught, only learned from a deep life.
Richard Fammerée, poet and director of
UniVerse of Poetry.org
Sans doute, faut-il voir dans ce cheminement de langages l'origine de cette recherche
du mot juste, de cette économie de fioritures verbales qui permettent à Stella
V. Radulescu, lauréate 2007 du Prix «Art & Poésie» de
nous offrir une poésie libre de haute qualité, où les sons
créent l'image, où l'image s'infiltre au tréfonds de l'être
pour faire vibrer les cordes les plus sensibles du coeur.
