Apropierea

Three Romanian poets swear an oath: each of them will travel the world for five years, searching for the springs of poetry. From that starting point their biographies slide imperceptibly from fact into fiction. The characters, recognisable at first, keep slipping out of the reader’s grasp, changing their routes and their profiles. Other stories move into the foreground, of emigration, adulterous affairs, journeys in search of a great love and true love stories, in a love story without minor characters.
