Story4.5 out of 5 stars 19
"Daca îti acorzi un cât de mic ragaz, daca arunci, de jur împrejur, o privire odihnita, curioasa si nepatimasa, vei gasi destule argumente sa te bucuri. Lucrurile (înca) functioneaza. Sarpanta lumii (înca) tine. Mai exista înca oameni întregi, traditii vii, întâlniri miraculoase. Traim într-un sos toxic, dar el contine înca mirodenii subtile, cu efect anesteziant. Marele animal cosmic nu pare înca sa ia în serios agitatia noastra propagandistica, spaimele noastre apocaliptice. Se poate trai. Se poate trai bine. Se poate (înca) trai frumos." (Andrei PLESU)

Ce inseamna, de fapt, "Comedii la portile Orientului"? Inseamna mai multe: umor tonic, haz vehement, ochi critic fixat asupra subrezeniilor indigene, verva cotropitoare, limbaj luxuriant si un farmec al rostirii care nu se obtine din dictionare si compendii. Aveti de-a face, asadar, cu un audiobook de gala. Rostul lui e sa ne binedispuna si sa ne reconecteze la literatura pura. Caci dincolo de eventuala lor miza pedagogic-moralizatoare, Comediile asta sunt: bucati sau mai degraba bucate literare, din care nu lipseste nici o mirodenie si care alcatuiesc un ospat de neuitat.

Atunci când gustul rusesc pentru fast, ceremonial și spații infinite se unește cu infailibilul fler imperial britanic, cultul victoriei și al onoarei, e limpede că rezultatul va fi unul invincibil și spectaculos."

Ecolul 19 este o alta planeta. Iti trebuie un anume spirit de aventura ca sa te intorci acolo, asumandu-ti riscul de a trai, zi de zi, exact ca oamenii vremii, de a te obisnui cu felul lor energic de a fi, cu regulile lor de conversatie, cu numeroasele lor obiecte de imbracaminte obligatoriu de purtat in acelasi timp pe unul si-acelasi trup, cu caii si cu servitorii lor, cu inima lor moale si cu taria lor de caracter, cu oala lor de noapte si cu balurile lor, cu teribilele lor pistoale si cu neajutorarea ingrozitoare in fata bolii, cu miasmele, cu parfumurile si cu sarurile lor, cu puricii si plosnitele dezgustatoare din hanurile lor, cu privatele din curte, cu scrisorile lor enorme si cu felul atat de direct in care ti se adreseaza chiar tie, cititorule, in romanele lor. Dar riscul cel mare este sa te deprinzi cu increderea lor absoluta intr-un viitor care tie, celui venit de acolo, din viitorul in care credeau ei atat de frumos, iti strange inima. Daca ajungi sa crezi si tu in el, ca ei, reintoarcerea acasa ar putea fi plina de dezamagiri si regrete.

Prima poveste e despre o dragoste târzie la Paris. A doua despre îngerii de lângă noi. În cea de-a treia veți simți un puternic miros de terebentină, iar în a patra, parfum de crini regali. A cincea vă aduce în auz un nume care zgârie și unul care mângâie. Prima poveste are miză și pariază pe nenoroc. A doua cade din fantastic în lumea noastră cea de toate zilele. A treia are realism, râs, nerv. A patra inocență, umor, visare. A cincea, cu ironie, face poezie și economie (politică).

"Singura autoritate pe care constiinta individuala nu si-o pune niciodata sau aproape niciodata la îndoiala e autoritatea morala. Capacitatea de a distinge între bine si rau, între viciu si virtute, dreptate si nedreptate pare a fi la îndemâna tuturor. În materie de etica, functionam constant printr-o nedemolabila autocomplezenta."

Razvan Vasilescu citind povestirile lui Cehov, sensibile si pline de umor, despre oameni simpli si intamplarile lor complicate, pare ca vine chiar din secolul XIX. Si nu vine singur, aduce cu sine un arhivar devenit celebru cu ocazia unui accident provocat de betie, o guvernanta mototoala care este supusa unui test cinic, un functionar care, impins de aburii betiei, ii cere socoteala fostului sau sef, un batran demn si important nevoit sa solicite ajutor pentru nepotul sau neispravit, un functionar sfrijit care se ploconeste in fata fostului sau coleg, ajuns om mare, o actrita ingenua care asteapta declaratia unui comic sacait insa de lipsa unui pahar de vodca, un contraamiral care este invitat la o nunta doar datorita rangului sau, un croitor care traieste din hazul amintirilor, acceptandu-si resemnat umilinta de dragul lor, un raufacator inocent care nu intelege ce fatalitate l-a adus in sala de judecata.

"Încercat-am sa înteleg de unde vin lacrimile si m-am oprit la sfinti. Sa fie ei responsabili de stralucirea lor amara? Cine ar sti? Se pare însa ca lacrimile sunt urmele lor; dar fara ei nu stiam ca plângem din regretul paradisului. As vrea sa vad o singura lacrima înghitita de pamânt... Toate apuca, pe cai necunoscute noua, în sus. Numai durerea precede lacrimile. Sfintii n-au facut altceva decât sa le reabiliteze." (Emil CIORAN)

Experience a bold take on this classic autobiography as it’s performed by Oscar-nominated Laurence Fishburne.

For his victims, for their families and for the investigators tasked with finding him, the senselessness and brutality of the Golden State Killer's acts were matched only by the powerlessness they felt at failing to uncover his identity. Then, on April 24, 2018, authorities arrested 72-year-old Joseph James DeAngelo at his home in Citrus Heights, Calif., based on DNA evidence linked to the crimes. Amazingly, it seemed, evil finally had a name. Please note: This work contains descriptions of violent crime and sexual assault and may not be suitable for all listeners.

In 1992, the deadliest year in Chicago’s history, seven-year-old Dantrell Davis was shot and killed in front of his elementary school inside the public housing complex Cabrini-Green. What happened to Dantrell led to a truce among Chicago’s gangs, but it also ignited a national panic about poverty and violence in America’s cities. Dantrell’s name would soon be used to demolish all of Chicago’s high-rise public housing, displacing tens of thousands of low-income families.

Moving and compassionate return to Romania
Moving and compassionate description of the Romanian genius of "institutionalizing chaos" after the 1989 fall of communism. A gentle but uncompromising reminder of what normality is. Should be read or listened to by any Romanian.
