This volume is bilingual, with the original Romanian on the facing pages.Max Blecher (September, 8 1909 - May, 31 1938) was a Romanian writer. While studying medicine in Paris, Blecher was diagnosed with spinal tuberculosis, a disease which kept him confined to hospitals and sanatoria for the remaining decade of his life. In spite of this, he produced a considerable amount of literature-including the novels Adventures in Immediate Unreality, Scarred Hearts, and the posthumously published The Lighted Burrow: A Sanatorium Journal-as well as keeping up correspodence with figures like André Breton, Mihail Sebastian, Ilarie Voronca, and Martin Heidegger.Christina Tudor-Sideri is a writer and translator from Eastern Europe.

Her translations include works by Mihail Sebastian, Magda Isanos, Max Blecher, Ilarie Voronca, and Anna de Noailles. 53 pages. Book.…
