Paler wrote a number of poetry collections during his lifetime. The poems, which appear as definitions , are rather like Haiku in their intensity and condensed descriptions of a feeling or a moment, they offer us an open door into the larger world of internal reflection. read one a day before meals or lingering over coffee

Paperback. Condition: New. ''The poems carry deep inside Paler's unique tenderness and reflection - short descriptions of feelings, thoughts or moments of our life. In all these short poems, sometimes only into a verse.I found again the main and constant topics which enriched my mind.I found definitions of tears and cries, of departures, of love, of regret, or of obsession. I found definitions of illusion, of maturity, of dignity, of balance, of silence, of loneliness, of ego.'' Mariana Ganea, Romanian-Insider''The poetry reads as though an individual, the poet, is going through a process of examination, attempting to define his relation to the world and to himself, to define not just how he fits in, but if and why. Therefore making this a very introspective collection of poetry, but one that will have you smiling at that collection of words placed in that "best order" and then the awareness of a deeper thought process will seep into your mind - that this collection of beautiful, clever introspective poetry, is not merely one individual's exploration of self, but that it relates to you, us, all of us.'' Gary Moon, The Parrish LanternOctavian Paler was a poet, novelist, essayist, journalist and former politician. He was born on July 2, 1926, into a peasant family in Lisa, Romania and attended the Faculty of Letters and Philosophy and the Law School of Bucharest (1945-1949). During his long career, he worked as an editor for the cultural section of the Romanian Radio Broadcasting Company (1949-1964), Agerpres correspondent in Rome (September-December 1964), General Manager of the Romanian Television (1965-1968), Vice-President of the Radio Broadcasting Company and coordinator of the literary and music sections (1968-1970), editor-in-chief with "Rom�nia libera" newspaper (1970-1983) and starting from 1990, honorary director of the newspaper.
