The book is a collection of poems dealing with various themes,
emotions and mental states, the overarching, unifying idea being
sadness. There is negative sadness, the kind that is usually
associated with some kind of traumatic experience; the kind that
makes one shun the world at large. However, there is also positive
sadness, the kind that makes one get out of a seemingly hopeless
situation; the kind that rejuvenates the mind toward better
possibilities. In both cases, the need and desire to overcome
oneself is readily apparent. The poems aspire to highlight these
instances.
Vasile Munteanu earned a B.A. and an M.A. degree in English and
American Literature from Oakland University in Michigan and a Ph.D.
in Philosophy, Interpretation and Culture from State University of
New York at Binghamton. For the past several years he has taught
Literature and Philosophy at the College of Southern Nevada in Las
Vegas. He is also the recent author of Godmaker, The Book of
Aloneness, The Book of Remembrance, Chandala, The Unthough,
Forgotten Words (Translations from the Romanian), The Book of
Intentions, The Book of Insistence and The Book of Longing.
