E mai degrabă un 3,5/5, dar nu mi se pare suficient să rotunjesc în sus. Prima jumătate din acest roman a mers ca unsă pentru că e bine scrisă și se concentrează pe ceea ce trebuie. Apoi a început povestea să se subțieze și să se lăbărțeze în toate di ...more

Scurt și la obiect, poetic, bine închegat. Are pe final niște vibe-uri de „All You Zombies” al lui Heinlein, și mi s-a părut că sugerează foarte puternic faptul că toată treaba cu călătoria în timp e posibilă datorită faptului că CHIAR trăiau într-o s ...more

Quotes by Cosmin Leucuța (?)

“Căci vie am fost,iar acum sunt moartă.Am dansat în castele goale,pe întuneric.Am pictat pe partea întunecată a lunii.Am privit soarele în ochi.Au apăsat pe mine grijile lumii și povara apelor adunate din lacrimile ei.Am ascultat îngerii rîzând.Am rostit ce nu se putea rosti.Mi-am dezlipt tatuajele de pe piele cu privirea.Mi-am sacrijelit testamentul pe spinarea diavolului și l-am ascultat cum gemea de plăcere.Ochii îmi sunt închiși și acum locuiesc în partea întunecată a omului.”

Cosmin’s Quotes

“— Auzi, tati, da’ eu o să mor?
Bărbatul a făcut o grimasă, apoi a spus:
— Toată lumea moare.
— Da’ și eu o să mor?
— Da, tati, și tu.”

“Când mă uit la stele e ca și cum... nu mă uit la ele ca la stele, ca la niște chestii îndepărtate și străine, ci mă simt ca și cum m-aș uita peste umăr spre casă.”
