Fric Reviews
-
Fric is a strange book - a novella with very surrealist and quite explicit language that mesmerizes the reader while not being necessary coherent or logical revolving around events in Moreea of 1715 and around the corpse of the title character who despite his suicide and being left to rot outside, sports a continual erection...
This is followed by a few author auto-biographical short stories with erotic themes, though the stories tend to be darkish and matter of fact more than anything else.
An unusual and interesting reading experience -
To keep it short: Romanian modern lit is definitely not for my taste.

Cu un substrat mitologic imbracat in forme obscene.
"Cît despre personaje, sînt, și ele, adevarate ca visele, obscene ca multe dintre nălucirile lor, într-un fel îndepărtat, angelice ca fruntea rece și foarte îndepărtată a defunctului Fric, cel menit învierii prin Eros." -
Although I am not particularly enjoying vulgarity in literature, it is clear from the techniques used and the phrasing that it is a talented writer. At some moments, I also enjoyed this short novel and I wonder how much wild the imagination can go.

O carte bizara cu accente istorice si pornografice, care se termina frumos, in intertextualitate cu Robinson Crusoe, in cheia naratiunii despre naufragii. Textul in schimb trece rapid de la una la alta, personajele nu prea au idei, ci mai mult pofte: "Duminica se scurge asa pe sub talpile lor, tesute din ore si pofte". Totusi, spre final eros si thanatos se intalnesc, iar aceasta intalnire produce fraze de tipul: "Mi-am mangaiat pizda asteptand moartea" sau "Noi insa construim o lume de ganduri si carti. In lumea noastra esti si tu, Orjen, si gaura ta micuta si rosie..." Frazele explicit sexuale aduc un soi de materialitate a istoriei, Moreea fiind asediata de otomani. Locuitorii insa nu se gandesc la o posibila praduire a cetatii lor, ci se dedau la pofte carnale dintre cele mai diverse.
