Anișoara Mustețiu, a Romanian writer in Australia, beautifully preserves Romanian culture through literature, weaving childhood nostalgia and Romanian heritage into her storytelling.
On a happy occasion, I met Anişoara Laura Mustețiu, a special acquaintance, because there were 15,222 kms between us. But this good half of the planet did not prevent me from discovering a poet with sensibilities that transcend the concrete world, in a sequence of special experiences, and an aesthetic filled with emotion and light.
Now, I discover the prose writer Anișoara Laura Mustețiu, who opens to the world in broad, unequivocal gestures. Haunted by “bearish longings”, she goes beyond any “silent gates, fenced in worldly facts” and, passing through the filter of her senses, old and new events, sifting them into lively stories.
Her stories, written with a special style of phrasing, with reliefs in suspension—and basically with a barely restrained amazement in front of her existence—directly transfer to the reader the colour, taste, and texture of the event, the memory, the feelings.
The autobiographical character “Anca, the-cursed-with-beauty” thus generously gives to others from the collected wonders, with clear eyes directed both to the being of things and the endless sky.
With this book, Anișoara Laura Mustețiu announces a very sensitive and beautiful journey in prose that will undoubtedly continue into future.
