Magda Isanos – Confesiuni lirice (Lyric Confessions)

About This Book

Magda Isanos (1916-1944) is among the most luminous voices of interwar Romanian poetry, her brief life producing verse of unusual warmth, vitality, and moral seriousness. Confesiuni lirice (Lyric Confessions) gathers the finest of her work in a single volume, with an introduction by Vasile Badiu that places the poet within her generation and traces the themes - nature, love, mortality, and an insistent affirmation of life - that give her writing its lasting power. Though her career was cut short at the age of twenty-eight, Isanos left a body of poetry that has kept its readership across the decades. This paperback edition runs to 320 pages. Please note that the text is in Romanian.
