1. Cuvintelor, Necuvintelor
An avant‑garde poetry collection that probes the limits of language by staging a dialogue between words and silence to reach what ordinary speech cannot name. Through neologisms, startling metaphors, and paradox, it meditates on love, time, and existence while questioning whether language reveals or distorts reality. Its inventive “nonwords” and lucid introspection outline a renewed poetics where meaning emerges in the charged space between saying and unsaying.
